“ To us as mothers, [ Jack and Jill ] has become a means of furthering an inherent and natural desire …to bestow upon our children all the opportunities possible for a normal and graceful approach to a beautiful adulthood.” – Marion Stubbs Thomas
Today with 230+ chapters nationally, our organization remains dedicated to nurturing our children, the African American leaders of the future.
Message from our President
I am honored to serve as the 18th President of the Las Vegas chapter, and will continue the tradition of dynamic women who have previously led and cultivated this chapter to its meaningful role in the southern Nevada community.
The Las Vegas Chapter has been committed to making a difference since our chartering in 1992. Our mother members lead the way by providing our children inspiring and educational activities in leadership development, cultural awareness, legislative advocacy, and community service. The betterment of the lives of all children is our mission and we are focused and committed to nurturing future servant leaders who will positively impact our world.
Our exceptional chapter is composed of amazing women from all professions and spectrums of life experiences. It is my desire to foster an inclusive environment for every mother member and her entire family. We are living in unprecedented times, so it is imperative that we have an organization that is a place of refuge; a place where lifetime friendships are formed and a source of support for our mother members, dads, and more importantly our children.
I am excited to see the many ways in which our children will not only grow as individuals, but how our families will grow closer together. Travel with us on the road to excellence. It is a journey that you do not want to miss!
We hope you enjoy our website and learn more about how we work, play, and live together to make our community better for all children.
In service,
Paula Watkins-Baker
President, Las Vegas Chapter
