HAA NY Power Summit 2023

HAANY POWER SUMMIT 2023

“Building Bridges for Collective Empowerment”

The Haitian American Alliance of New York (HAANY) cordially invites you to attend the Annual Power Summit, on May 5-6th, 2023, titled “Building Bridges for Collective Empowerment”.

This 2-day conference will feature keynote speeches, workshops, and break-out sessions by leaders of Haitian descent in the worlds of non-profit, finance, education, mental health, youth leadership, and media.

The Power Summit’s primary focus, in its inaugural year, is to provide a platform where Haitian luminaries, leaders and Haitian organizations can network and form strong-lasting alliances towards building the bridge to a more empowered and cohesive Haitian diaspora.

In 2023, it’s imperative as Haitian-Americans, for us to prioritize the advancement of our social, political, and economic status by finding common ground among our organizations and thought leaders.

Participants of our event can expect to:

• Interact with experts from their respective fields on key issues with the opportunity to create new long-term sustainable affiliations.

• Gain access to organizations and leaders outside of their specific area of expertise that are also focused on various aspects of community building within the diaspora.

• Confront our collective traumatic cultural experiences.

• Acquire and share key contacts in order to appropriate the services that we need.

• Initiate the process to advance the Haitian diaspora platform in order to create an equitable society for our children.

• Begin the discussion to the pathway of economic empowerment.

Contributions to HAA are tax-deductible as we are a 501(c)3 organization. A portion will contribute to the HAA's scholarship fund and to support Asylum Seekers in the NY area.
