Women Over Dinner is an invitation for women to gather and connect over a series of thought-provoking, intimate questions and nourishing food. This particular dinner will be hosted in partnership with Ladies of Hope Ministries.
Dr. Topeka K. Sam founded The Ladies of Hope Ministries (The LOHM) in 2017 to support women and girls who are impacted by the criminal legal system. While incarcerated, she realized that prison and jail are not conducive to healing and rehabilitation. Upon her release, Topeka made it her mission to create pathways to success for women and girls and advocate for alternatives to incarceration.
The dinner table, in its sacred simplicity, holds space for connection. We invite you to gather as women to see and be seen in your power and your beauty, as you break bread and exchange experience and wisdom with other women. Women gathering to share in this way is something the world desperately needs more of. At Women Over Dinner, we all get to remember that we are the jewel.
This isn’t just another gathering. It’s a movement. It’s a reminder that when women gather, we change everything.
Due to the intimate nature of the topics we explore, this event is for adults. You must be 18+. This is a substance-free and alcohol-free event.
Suggested donation is $25-40 per person. Please donate the amount that you are able, any extra goes towards the creation of our events inside women's prisons.
