Erica Parkhurst
Founder & President, Young Women's National Conference
Mrs District of Columbia International 2010

Mission: I am dedicated to inspiring all girls to reach their full potential as confident, influential and bold young women.

Platform: The Young Women’s National Conference (YWNC) will equip young women (ages 14-17 years) with the necessary tools to become more confident and the courage to embrace their leadership potential. We inspire them to act on their vision to positively affect their lives and advocate positive change in the world.
 +  YWNC will connect young women to women leaders who will share their real life stories.
 +  YWNC will help young women build ties with peers & mentors in the greater DC area.
+ YWNC will build their self esteem and restore confidence.

As Founder: I plan to recruit and change more young women's lives for the upcoming 2010 conference. I will also develop one on one mentoring sessions and internship programs to foster the relationship with these young women in the DC area.


One person can make a difference, together we can make change!
