The Women’s Center of Jacksonville (WCJ) presents Women, Words & Wisdom, an evening that brings our community together to celebrate, motivate, and inspire! This annual celebration takes place on Women’s Equality Day, a national day celebrating the importance of the women’s suffrage movement and the passage of the 19th Amendment giving women the right to vote. At this event we also honor our annual Sheros and Heros. These special awards recognize individuals who work tirelessly to improve the lives of women in our community. Save the date!
