ACL is proud to announce its’ Inaugural retreat for minority women who are interested in starting or expanding their own businesses.

We thought it would be fitting to stand where these pioneers gathered to change the course of history and absorb the energy of courage and faith that they left behind. Join us as we face our fears and plunge ahead into our destinys. We will visit historic African American museums, vision quest on the top of the highest mountain, network and share, and of course, receive information and strategies from business owners who have found the keys to success. Our key speaker will be Stephanie Drake, president of Drake Inc., an African-American woman-owned multi-million dollar construction and real estate firm located in Washington, D.C. Ms. Drake will speak to how her vision came to life and what strategies she used to achieve her goals.
