Passing the Torch
You're Invited: Passing the Torch — A Celebration of Legacy and Leadership
BWOPA invites you to a powerful moment in our organization's history — a time to honor our past and embrace our future.
Join us as we pay tribute to Founding Member Dezie Woods Jones, whose visionary leadership has blazed trails for Black women in politics and public service. As she takes her well-earned retirement, we raise our glasses to her unmatched legacy.
At the same time, we proudly welcome LaNiece Jones as she steps into the helm to continue steering BWOPA forward — deepening our impact and elevating the next generation of Black women leaders as part of the Building Black Power Movement.
