This Isn’t Just Another Networking Event.. It’s a Radical Shift in How We Share Research
The Summit was created for those doing real, rigorous work on Black women’s sexual, reproductive, and mental health who are ready to build a community that shares those values.
You’ll leave with clarity, connections, and a stronger voice, all rooted in joy, curiosity, and care.

We’re Done Waiting for Space, So We Built Our Own
Too often, important work gets buried in systems that weren’t made for us. At the Summit, we center Black scholars who are:
Turning data into programming and resources that have community impact
Ready to collaborate on peer-reviewed publications
Interested in learning more from data partners across the nation
Bringing brilliance from both lived experience and the academy
Doing work that deserves real-time support and spotlight
Who's in the Room? You. Your People. Your Next Chapter. You’ll be alongside a selected group of:
Undergrads, grads, postdocs, junior faculty
Research scientists across disciplines
People committed to care, justice, and community
Folks who believe research should have community impact
Whether you’ve published before or this is your first big project, this space was made for you.
Real Progress. Collective Momentum.
