 purpose of the Empowering Women of Color Conference (EWOCC) is to build 
 bridges between academic and community women of color, in an effort to 
 assist them in sharing resources, strategies, and visions that will empower 
 them at all levels of society. The Conference also strives to build 
 networks between different generations, ethnic and racial groups, 
 socioeconomic levels, sexual orientations, and physical abilities. Few 
 forums exist wherein women of color are provided the space to dialogue 
 about the issues that matter most to them. EWOCC provides such a forum.
