The Texas Conference for Women – the state’s largest professional development conference – celebrates its 20th anniversary with special keynotes from USWNT co-captain and equality advocate Megan Rapinoe; award-winning actress, producer, director, and activist Tracee Ellis Ross; Morgan Stanley executive Carla Harris; and way more, with the goal of promoting diversity and inclusion for women of color and queer women.: Tickets to the main conference (Oct. 24) are sold out, but tickets for opening night are still available and provide a “taste” of what the main conference is like in a condensed timeframe and at a lower price. It’s also possible to purchase conference day livestream tickets ($50) to watch the keynotes and your choice of two breakout sessions. See website for details.
