Geena the Latina's Confidence Conference

Get all the latest celebrity and trending news here in San Diego with Geena The Latina!

On April 1, Geena will host the 2017 Girls Empowerment Conference.  This event is something she has envisioned for YEARS now.  It has always been her vision to put together a day of inspiration, motivation, support, and love for teen girls here in San Diego.  Last year, Geena was a keynote speaker at the Girls Empowerment Conference at Mt. Miguel High School as well as at the Girls Force USA Leadership Summit. After speaking at these two conferences, it made perfect sense to combine forces to create the ultimate conference for teen girls in San Diego, thus the 2017 Girls Empowerment Conference was born!  This year's theme is Confidence and we are so excited to bring you an amazing day of awesome speakers, workshops, and overall positive influence on teen girls here in San Diego.  

Thank you to all our sponsors for believing in the project and thank you to everyone involved who has helped make this day happen.  Thank you to the speakers and volunteers who have generously donated their time to this special day.  And a special thank you to the girls from Mt. Miguel High School who are heavily involved in planning the event, spreading the word to other high schools girls, and making sure we are covering topics/issues that are relevant to teen girls right now.
