The fifth annual Westchester Women’s Summit, the largest Women’s History Month celebration in Westchester County, returns to the Sonesta White Plains Downtown Friday, March 14, from 8 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. with a slate of programs that will focus once again on women’s wellness in four key areas — physical and mental health, financial health, career health and family and community health.
Presented by The Event Department with the Westchester County Office for Women and NewYork-Presbyterian, the summit brings together community leaders, corporate sponsors and other influential voices for a day of workshops, networking and interactive experiences.
This year, Juju Chang, Emmy Award-winning co-anchor of ABC News’ “Nightline,” will deliver the keynote.
“We are thrilled to have Juju Chang headline this year’s event,” said Rose Cappa-Rotunno, founder of the Westchester Women’s Summit and president of The Event Department. “Her dedication to impactful journalism and her ability to address meaningful issues resonate perfectly with our mission to empower and uplift women.”
Among the day’s other features are:
- The Discovery Village — a marketplace spotlighting sponsors, nonprofits and community resources;
- The Experience Zone — an interactive self-care hub offering meditation sessions, makeovers, Krav Maga demonstrations and more;
- A Grab & Go Networking Lunch;
- A History of Women in Westchester Installation — an exhibit showcasing the contributions of women throughout the county’s history, developed with local universities; and
- A Wine and Chocolate Reception, highlighting local boutiques.
