✨ Keynote Speaker Announcement ✨
We are honored to welcome Monalisa Smith as our Keynote Speaker.
Monalisa is the President, Founder & CEO of Mothers for Justice and Equality, an organization she founded in 2010 to create safer and more equitable communities for mothers, youth, and families. What began as a grassroots vision has grown into a powerful movement rooted in empowerment, economic mobility, and community healing.
Before leading MJE, Monalisa spent more than 30 years at Citizens Bank as a Corporate Lender and Director of Community Investment. With a background in finance, business development, and nonprofit leadership, she has dedicated her career to creating opportunities that strengthen families and communities.
Her leadership continues to inspire change, bridge systems, and uplift voices that too often go unheard.
Join us for this powerful conversation on leadership, community, wellness and building a more equitable future. 💜
