"Our inaugural event was very successful, and Dr. Sondra Cosgrove, another good friend of mine Preston Young who runs a non-profit in California called "Peace in the Streets" encouraged me to host it again the next year.  This year we are hosting our fourth event. It is exciting to be a part of the growth of this summit. We are empowering women to seek high-paying, non-traditional careers that can change their futures."

The purpose of the National Alliance Summit is to provide visibility, advocacy and empowerment for women of color in non-traditional careers. Attendees will receive valuable information about the opportunities that are available in trade union apprenticeship programs.  A series of speakers will share their stories of overcoming challenges to achieve their goals.

"Women who attend this event can expect to find unity, support and knowledge that can literally change their lives," Pacheco said. "They will become a part of our movement. The current environment of focus on female leadership is the perfect setting for this summit."
