Inspiring and Empowering

Content for Women

Last year, at HerOwnership 2023 in Dallas, TX, attendees were honored to hear from Dr. Nissi Hamilton, a human trafficking survivor and CEO of non-profit Nissi's Network, where she works with communities to reduce human trafficking in high-risk areas of poverty. She touched and inspired the women in the room who heard her story of overcoming the unthinkable, and how it led to her becoming a philanthropist, business owner, and human trafficking awareness advocate.
