Mission: To embrace and ignite the PODEROSA in ALL Latinas through the creation of supportive spaces for our community to gather, heal, and thrive juntas.

About: Established in 2022, Poderosa Collective (PC) is a community born of passion and creative collaboration. The group, made up of Latinas in Wisconsin, strives to curate spaces where Latinas feel empowered, celebrated, and united. The movement uplifts the voices, contributions, and talents of Latinas from all backgrounds. Serving as a connector and convener for the Latina community in Greater Milwaukee, PC provides experiences and access to resources for and by Latina-owned businesses and Latina-led organizations to unleash their magic.
