Women of Color Rising
Applications Close July 23rd, 2024
We are excited to announce the debut of the Women of Color Rising Cohort in 2024. This transformative program supports Black, Indigenous, Latina, Asian, and Middle Eastern women who are leaders or aspiring leaders in the nonprofit, corporate, and entrepreneurial sectors. This cohort utilizes the TRHT framework to remove the barriers to economic mobility through education and support on crucial issues such as racial healing, mental health and wellness, navigating various sectors, and creating racial and ethnic solidarity.
About The Cohort
Women of Color leaders provide numerous resources to the community through entrepreneurship, leadership, and belonging. Yet, they often receive little support in return. They face numerous challenges, including racialized trauma, gaslighting, lack of economic support, and educational barriers, all while striving for excellence. Our cohort aims to alleviate these challenges and create a brave space that encourages economic mobility, mental health wellness, and racial healing.
This cohort is an in-person pilot program at Dallas TRHT's offices in Dallas, TX. This is a five-month program with sessions held once a month. The program dates are:
- August 30th
- September 27th
- October 25th
- November 15th
- December 13th
