LACC Women's Group, Networking Group

Description

We are proud to introduce the Chamber’s newest networking initiative — a Women’s Group designed to foster connection, professional growth, and community impact.

This will be the Chamber’s only networking group open to both members and non-members, creating an inclusive space for women at all stages of their careers and business journeys.

The group will meet twice each month on the 2nd and 4th Wednesdays, providing a consistent and structured opportunity to connect.

Each month will feature two distinct experiences. The first meeting will host a carefully curated outside speaker who brings relevant insight, practical takeaways, and inspiration for women in business and leadership. The second meeting will spotlight a member of the group, offering an opportunity to share their business, passion project, or area of expertise while building visibility and strengthening peer connections.

This Women’s Group will also include a philanthropic component. Each year, the group will select and support a local nonprofit organization, reinforcing our shared commitment to giving back to the community.

There will be a nominal participation fee for Chamber members and a higher fee for non-members. These funds will support program operations and allow the group to make an annual philanthropic contribution.

We look forward to cultivating a dynamic and supportive network of women committed to growth and impact.

MAY 13th SPEAKER:  Jen Jepsen   |   TOPIC: Permission Slips

This week's session will be centered on the idea of “permission slips,” encouraging women to embrace self-worth, make intentional choices, and redefine expectations around change, boundaries, and purpose. It blends personal stories and reflective themes to inspire confidence, authenticity, and community connection.
