WHY THIS PROGRAM MATTERS?
The Athens Anti-Discrimination Movement (AADM) launched the Women’s Wellness & Justice Leadership Cohort in honor of Debra Brenner, a longtime board member who passed September 2024.
This cohort empowers women to understand their rights, strengthen their well-being, and cultivate leadership skills that enable them to advocate effectively, sustain their impact, and lead with confidence and purpose. Through rights-based education, wellness practices, and leadership development, participants gain the tools to protect themselves, inspire their communities, and drive meaningful social change.
We invite you to join a community of women committed to wellness, empowerment, and collective action.
