For Black women in higher education, homeplaces serve as much-needed sanctuaries amidst isolating or personally affronting professional environments.

Here, “home” isn’t about location but it's a space where like-hearted Black women unite and heal from the weight of navigating academic spaces that weren’t designed with us in mind.

EmpoweredxHomeplaces embraces this concept by offering Black women a community that honors our unique experiences in leadership and academia. Here, we build and protect space that sustains us as we continue to make an impact.
