Mississippi will have a brighter tomorrow and you have a part in making it so. Be part of identifying and prioritizing hope-focused efforts in 2022.

Join us on MARCH 22 at the Mississippi Trade Mart, 1200 Mississippi Street, Jackson, MS 39202 from 10.00 to 3.00 to give voice and focus to areas most in need of hope this year.

For hope to flourish only three things are needed: realistic goals, strong pathways and the ability to maintain willpower.
