S.H.E. Week is a signature event of the Frederick County Chamber of Commerce's Women in Business Committee. S.H.E. Week centers around Women's Equality Day (August 26th) and is ​a week of events celebrating the Strength, Heart and Equality of women in Frederick County. S.H.E. Week 2022 will take place August 22 - 26.

The Frederick County Chamber of Commerce partners with a number of nonprofits in the community to reduce barriers and provide attendance opportunities for S.H.E. Week programming.

WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING ABOUT THE EXPERIENCE:

"The Frederick County Chamber of Commerce Women in Business Committee’s S.H.E. Week initiative was a wonderful opportunity for our community to come together to celebrate the successes of local women. The week was an enriching experience to learn from local women who have blazed trails, transformed lives and created new opportunities for the next generation of female leaders. I enjoyed hearing their stories of success and failure, perseverance and passion, grit and grace. Frederick County is a great place to celebrate the strength, heart and equality of women!" - Jan Gardner, County Executive, Frederick County Government.

​"WOW! S.H.E. Week was the most inspiring, fun, and educational conference I have ever been to. Every female, no matter your role at work or life, should attend!" -Whitney Cummins, M.Ed. Cummins Leadership Foundation
