Why Bridgeton?
The purpose for hosting the Space For Her women’s conference in Bridgeton is quite significant. The city of Bridgeton is located in the heart of Cumberland County which is known as the "Garden spot in the Garden State." Agriculture has been an integral part of life and commerce since pre-Revolutionary times.
Bridgeton has a large number of immigrants who do a lot of farm labor with 61% living below the national poverty line and contain the most impoverished neighborhoods south of Camden, NJ according to the US Census. Source
The crushing blow of poverty eliminates opportunities for women to rise above their situation. Space For Her seeks to provide a space specifically for women to focus on financial, physical, mental, and spiritual empowerment.
The theme for this year’s Space For Her conference is “Focus Forward for Your Future.” We could think of no better place to continue hosting such a significant event for women — than in the city of Bridgeton. Through this conference we seek to champion and make space for women to achieve their most authentic self.
The event will take place virtually and in-person. The physical event will take place at All The Nations Church located at 660 Landis Avenue Bridgeton, NJ.
