15 Years Strong: Women of Color Honored in Brookhaven Celebration

Chit Chat Communications is celebrating a milestone year

The community-based media and events platform will mark 15 years of honoring women of color during its annual Women’s History Month celebration on Saturday, March 7, 2026, at 10:00 a.m. The event will be held at Brookhaven City Centre, 4001 Peachtree Road NE, Brookhaven, GA 30319.

What began as a local recognition effort has grown into a signature gathering that uplifts leadership, service, entrepreneurship, and cultural impact across metro Atlanta.

Founded and led by Carla Morrison, Chit Chat Communications has built its brand around storytelling, community connection, and elevating voices often overlooked in mainstream spaces. The annual Women’s History Month event reflects that mission.

This year’s celebration will spotlight a new class of honorees whose work spans business, education, civic engagement, health advocacy, and creative industries. Organizers say the evening is designed not only to recognize achievement but to create space for mentorship, collaboration, and intergenerational dialogue.

“For 15 years, we have intentionally created a platform that celebrates the brilliance, resilience, and leadership of women of color,” Morrison said in the release. “This event is about honoring legacy while inspiring the next generation.”

The Brookhaven celebration will feature award presentations, networking opportunities, and moments of reflection tied to the national observance of Women’s History Month. Attendees are expected to include community leaders, entrepreneurs, nonprofit executives, elected officials, and supporters from across the region.

Women’s History Month, observed each March, recognizes the vital contributions of women to American history, culture, and society. Events like this one provide a local lens on that national celebration, highlighting leaders whose impact is felt in neighborhoods, classrooms, boardrooms, and small businesses throughout metro Atlanta.

Organizers say the 15-year milestone offers a moment to look back at the dozens of women previously honored — many of whom continue to shape the region’s civic and economic landscape.

As Chit Chat Communications enters its next chapter, the organization says its commitment remains the same: amplify stories, build community, and celebrate the power of women whose leadership transforms lives.

Event details, including ticket information and honoree announcements, are available through Chit Chat Communications’ official channels.
