Nicholas Mulkey, alongside Laurie Prickett from Invest Atlanta and Stefan Harrigan at Metro Atlanta Chamber were honored to attend the 10th Annual National Alliance for the Advancement of Haitian Professionals Conference. This was also the first year that the conference was hosted in Atlanta! This year's theme was “Unleash Your Power! Creating a new paradigm for professional excellence in the Haitian?Diaspora and mobilizing for dignified leadership strategies in Haiti.” Each year, the NAAHP conference brings together the Haitian diaspora to foster education and explore ways to create a significant impact within the Haitian community. We value the NAAHP’s mission to connect a global community of peers with career advancement resources for Haitians across the United States.
