Her leadership builds upon the foundation established by her father while expanding BUILD’s work to reach and empower the next generation of community leaders.\n\n“BUILDing Soldierettes is about recognizing the power women have to lead\, influence\, build\, and transform the communities around them\,” said Halimah Basheer. “Leadership requires discipline\, purpose\, emotional intelligence\, and alignment. We want women to understand that they do not have to compete with men to be powerful leaders. We can stand alongside one another in partnership\, strengthening our families and communities together.”\n\nThe workshop will explore how women can cultivate greater clarity around their purpose while developing the discipline and leadership skills necessary to navigate personal\, professional\, and community challenges. Participants will have opportunities to engage with leaders\, mentors\, and community professionals while connecting with other women committed to personal growth and community transformation.\n\nBUILDing Soldierettes is also designed to reinforce the importance of partnership over competition. The program encourages women to recognize their unique strengths and leadership abilities while building collaborative relationships with men and other community stakeholders.\n\nThe initiative builds upon the BUILD Program’s broader mission of “putting the public back in public safety” by investing in people\, strengthening families\, developing community leaders\, and creating pathways for individuals to become active participants in building safer and more resilient communities.\n\nThe BUILD Program was founded by Dr. Aquil Basheer\, a pioneering figure in community violence intervention whose work has focused on addressing violence through prevention\, mentorship\, behavioral intervention\, community engagement\, and the development of community-based leadership. Under Halimah Basheer’s leadership\, BUILD continues to evolve while remaining grounded in the principles of service\, accountability\, discipline\, healing\, leadership\, and community transformation.\n\n“BUILDing Soldierettes is another opportunity to invest in people\,” Basheer added. “When women are equipped with the tools to lead with purpose\, discipline and intelligence\, the impact extends far beyond the individual. It reaches families\, organizations\, neighborhoods\, and entire communities.”\n\nAttendees can expect an engaging afternoon featuring leadership development\, mentorship\, personal growth\, community engagement\, networking\, and interactive programming designed to encourage women to identify their purpose\, strengthen their discipline\, and step confidently into leadership.\n\nEvent Details:\nBUILDing Soldierettes\nDate: August 29\, 2026\nTime: 12:00 p.m. – 4:00 p.m.\nLocation: 1409 West Vernon Ave.\, Los Angeles\, CA\nRegistration: Required\nAdmission: All ages welcome\n\nBUILDing Soldierettes represents another step in the BUILD Program and PCITI International’s ongoing efforts to develop leaders and strengthen communities through education\, mentorship\, prevention\, and empowerment.\n\nFor media inquiries\, interviews\, sponsorship opportunities\, registration information\, or additional information\, please contact: Nickie Robinson at nickie@goodgirlpr.com.
