I'm Frances Robin, a visionary leader dedicated to empowering women, healing families, and building resilient communities. Born in Dominica, my journey bridges cultures and transforms lives.

As the founder of the Virginia Women and Family Support Center, Carried To Full Term Maternal Health Program, and Awakening The Warriors, I create safe spaces where women rediscover their strength, reclaim their independence and dignity. My approach is holistic, addressing immediate needs while fostering long-term independence and healing.

My mission is rooted in faith. My passion is inspired by my grandmother's love, my mother's steadfastness, and the values of my Caribbean upbringing. I believe in the power of community, education, and storytelling to break the cycles of trauma and homelessness.

Twenty years of leadership and management experience with documented success in health service management, emergency medical planning, human resource management, training and development and impacting change within organizations. I’m interested in establishing, developing and maintaining effective policies and measurable return on investment in support of diversity and organizations effectiveness programs.
