What a remarkable evening of sisterhood, storytelling, and inspiration!

We extend our heartfelt gratitude to our Chapter sister, Sheinelle Jones, for sharing her authentic voice, personal journey, and the wisdom found in Through Mom’s Eyes. Her transparency, grace, and vulnerability empowered every mother and woman in the room, reminding us of the strength that comes from sharing our stories.

After 15 incredible stops across the country, we were honored that the Sweet 16, and final stop, of Sheinelle’s book tour was spent with her Metro-Manhattan (NY) Chapter, The Links, Incorporated sisters and the many extraordinary women who make up this beautiful community of support, encouragement, and love.

A special thank you to Michelle Miller for guiding such a thoughtful and engaging conversation, and to everyone who joined us for this unforgettable evening.

Together, we celebrated motherhood, resilience, wisdom, and the power of sisterhood. The conversations will continue long after the evening ended, and for that, we are truly grateful.

The energy at last week’s Economic Forum for The Links Incorporated was unmatched! The Metro Manhattan (NY) Chapter showed up at the New York Stock Exchange to champion entrepreneurship and wealth creation. From engaging panels to hands-on workshops and critical discussions, this forum was all about building enduring economic legacies for our families and communities.

Kudos to our powerhouse chapter members, Carla Harris and Erika Jones for their pivotal leadership in bringing this high-impact vision to life with the National Women’s Empowerment Committee, and Arlene Isaacs-Lowe and Lisa Tatum for dropping gems as featured panelists! 👏🏾

Attendees from across the country engaged live and virtually, including National President Ethel Isaacs Williams. We ended a fulfilling day connecting with members of the Greater New York and Brooklyn chapters.

Strategic moves, incredible people, and serious inspiration. The future of Black economic leadership is bright!
