![]() The Mothers and Daughters of Excellence Conference May 9 and May 10, 2008 The Cobo Center in Detroit, Michigan 1 Washington Blvd Detroit, Michigan 48226 10:00 AM - 4:00 PM. | |
About the Conference The purpose of the Mothers and Daughters of Excellence conference is to meet the spiritual, emotional, physical, economic and social needs of mothers and their adult daughters; to improve their potential for more effective roles in their families, churches, jobs, and communities. This two day conference offers a variety of opportunities to nurture, strengthen and create a bond between mothers and daughters. This two day conference will also bring together women in need of help and hope and powerful leaders who have an ample supply of both. Phenomenal leaders and motivational speakers have accepted the challenge to coach, motivate and inspire mothers and daughters to the next level of success. Most mothers in the United States are raising at least one daughter. This is a reasonable assumption since statistics show that more females than males are born each year. More females survive to adulthood than males and females tend to live longer than males. The disintegration of mother and daughter relationships has had a profound impact on our society. It has resulted in a loss of direction, morals, compassion and self-respect that has manifested in addictions and violence. The number of female violent offenders has dramatically increased in the past century, juveniles account for an estimated 28% of these offenses. Additionally, according to data from the Bureau of Justice Statistics, approximately 59.3% of State and 47.6% of Federal female prisoners surveyed in 2004 indicated that they used drugs in the month before their offense. It is our mission to reverse the dangerous trends that are sweeping our nation by educating, empowering and healing the damaged relationships between mothers and daughters. The Mothers and Daughters of Excellence Conference 2008 will offer quality speakers who will educate and equip women to make positive changes in their health, homes and community. This action packed two day conference will also feature a wide variety of workshops, interactive sessions and vendor exhibits. The mother/daughter relationship is timeless. It spans more than the lifetimes of any mother and a daughter as the continuity of the generations passes on mother to daughter over generations. A taste of immortality is offered to mothers and daughters, who can, in precious moments, feel themselves back in time as their mothers and grandmothers, touching the ancestral chord of their "tribe." And, in holding their daughters, granddaughters or great granddaughters, they may also touch the future, the lineage of which they are a part. The hope of all our mother daughter relationship work is that women can heal the wounds that block our access to this potential gift of being a daughter and being a woman, whole and complete. |
