A notable pre-convention event is the memorial luncheon titled “Advocating For Justice, Inspiring Change: Remembering the Legacy of George Floyd,” with a keynote address by civil rights advocate Benjamin Crump. Jack and Jill has organized its “Your Health, Your Legacy – A Health Fair Empowering You To Make A Difference” on July 23, an opportunity for attendees, particularly within the African American community, to be empowered to make change. On July 9, the organization confirmed over 20 vendors to be featured at this year’s health fair.
Invited guests will experience an exclusive welcome reception at Paisley Park, Prince’s creative sanctuary. The organization has introduced an Alumni Track for young adults aged 19-25, offering professional development and networking opportunities. Additionally, the convention will unveil the new Pink and Blue Pages Business Directory, underscoring Jack and Jill’s commitment to economic development and Black-owned enterprises.
This gathering marks the conclusion of Brown’s tenure as National President. “As my final term of leading the organization as National President comes to an end, I look forward to gathering once again to perform the business of Jack and Jill,” she said. The convention will see Jack and Jill members from across the nation convene to ensure the organization’s continued success after 86 years.
