The Metropolitan Nashville Chapter of the National Coalition of 100 Black Women has membership comprised of over 50 business and professional women throughout the Middle Tennessee area. The organization utilizes the resources of these women to expand the Coalition’s mission of elevating the development and growth of women of color. The collective result has been a positive impact upon families and the community-at-large.
