An event in North Omaha celebrated Women’s History Month by focusing on empowering women from all backgrounds.
Identity Prep, Nebraska’s first Black-founded state-approved school, hosted the “Investing in Our Girls” event at the Benson Theatre.
Dr. Monique Couvson, an author whose work has impacted the lives of young women in North Omaha, spoke about how girls can thrive despite challenges in their lives.
“This is an opportunity for me to be in conversation with anyone who picks up the book about the sphere of influence they have and the ways that they can invest in the girls in their lives,” Couvson said.
Couvson hopes that through her new book, it will create a future where every girl has the opportunity to reach her full potential.
