This is our last What About Solutions entry for January. YAY! If you want to promote a group or individuals fighting the War on Black women, click on "contact" at the top of the page and let us know. Our final entry is The Sisterhood Agenda Join the Movement Campaign:

Sisterhood Agenda, Inc. is a global, award-winning nonprofit organization created to uplift and aid in the self-development of women and girls of African descent, a historically at-risk and traditionally underserved population.  Sisterhood Agenda serves over 3 million women and girls each year in over 30 countries.

Sisterhood Agenda creates and centralizes resources for females of African descent to address health, cultural, social, and economic needs through a variety of innovative approaches, publications, programs and services.
