Welcome to the Women of Prince George's

Women of Prince George's is the foremost professional resource for established entrepreneurs and businesswomen in the Greater Prince George's area. We aim to provide our members with an enriching educational experience and access to exclusive networking opportunities across industries. We also showcase inspiring case studies and organize events that help our members support and grow their businesses.

Fifteen years ago, Stephanie Bolton James and Crystal Pollard harnessed the power of women coming together to learn something new, stretch themselves, support one another, and launch a thriving community. Today, we celebrate the 15th anniversary of offering educational events to women and men in our community.

A Special Thank You to Crystal Pollard, who is part of the founding team of WPG.
