Black Women’s Wellness Day is more than an event; it’s a space to exhale, heal, and rise in personal and collective sisterhood and community as we create solutions and build a better present and future together.
Join us for yet another powerful experience—a celebration of our resilience, a reclamation of joy and rest, and a recognition of wellness as a form of resistance!

About Black Women’s Wellness Day
Black Women’s Wellness Day (BWWDAY) is the signature annual event of the Foundation for Black Women’s Wellness, and aims to inform, inspire, and empower Black women of all ages to build, lead, and sustain healthy, wellness-centered lives, families, and communities.
Launched in 2009 by Founder, President & CEO, Lisa M. Peyton, Black Women’s Wellness Day was first observed in a small public library with a crowd of 40 women and family members on Friday, May 22, 2009. Lisa created the event to honor her mother Roberta W. Peyton who succumbed to heart disease at the age of 64 on May 22, 2006; and to spur a movement among Black women everywhere to radically transform their health and their lives.
Since that time, BWWDAY has grown to become one of largest annual health and wellness summits by Black women, for Black women, and attracting attendees and speakers from across the United States and the world.
