"A Sistah needs time to balance life and look after herself too"
Join us for our First Annual Women's Wellness Retreat in honor of Women's History Month. Our goal is to empower and educate women to incorporate beauty, balanced living and wellness practices as a part of their lifestyle. Held in a state of the art facility yet relaxing environment, this is no ordinary Girls Night Out. Body, Mind and Spirit is the Extreme Makeover for the Woman's Soul Empowerment and Wellness Retreat. Serving a healthy lunch, our holistic approach yields an unforgettably exhilarating, educational, and inspiring experience. Additionally, The Justice is dedicated to Empowering and Educating Women To Make Better Choices, especially young women and at-risk girls which largely affects our home, schools and community life.
