Empower Her Committee

The EMPOWER Her Committee, chaired by Andrea Little Gray, is dedicated to supporting, connecting, and celebrating women in leadership across Henderson County. Through events like the Women’s Breakfast, the Professional Women’s Luncheon, and Empower Hours, the committee creates opportunities for networking, mentorship, and professional growth. Formerly known as the ATHENA Committee, the group continues its mission under a new name, honoring the legacy of Vanessa Y. Mintz and the ATHENA Leadership Award. By fostering an inclusive and uplifting environment, the EMPOWER Her Committee inspires women to achieve their full potential and make a lasting impact in their community.
