Empow-HER Moment

WOCIP Executive Director, LaCresha L. Lightfoot

WOCIP Executive Director LACRESHA L. LIGHTFOOT reflects about her experience launching this first issue.

“WOCIP is an organization that aims to advance women of color in pharma. It serves as a bridge between the community and pharma, educates to advance health equity, and influences policy and strategy to create sustainable change in the industry. It uses its resources to collaborate with diversity suppliers to break systemic barriers that block equitable access for small businesses of color. This publication is an example of the impact WOCIP will continue to have globally. Thank you to the WOCIP founders for sharing their powerful stories. We would also like to thank the small businesses that helped make this inaugural magazine possible. Finally, thank you for supporting this issue and the issues to come as we continue to contribute to the health of the world.”
