Speakers' Bureau

INCITE! is excited to announce its Speakers Bureau for 2008.

 

INCITE! speakers can address a wide range of topics of critical importance to women of color and their communities, and have agreed to donate at least one engagement a year on behalf of INCITE!, pending their availability. Fees are set at a sliding scale and revenue goes directly to INCITE!, to support our current and new projects
