Mission : To empower the presence, amplify the voices, and create connections for Black Unitarian Universalist women, girls, and femmes.
Vision: We envision a thriving community where Black UU women, girls, and femmes are seen, celebrated, and resourced to live fully into their gifts and leadership within Unitarian Universalism and beyond.
Sister Souurce, Inc. is the first organization dedicated to Black UU women, girls, and femmes. We are a 501 (c) (3) Non-Profit based in Atlanta, GA, with virtual ministries that span the USA and Africa (for now!). We have in-person opportunities coming in early 2026. Our flagship events center Black, femme-identified community. We create spiritually expansive, Black-centered spaces that speak to those from various faith traditions and relationships to spiritual life. We believe in freedom, fun, and friendship.
We also host events that welcome allies and wider audiences to celebrate Black joy alongside us.
