The Junior League of Atlanta, Inc. (JLA) will host its annual Little Black Dress Initiative (LBDI) from December 1-3, 2025. LBDI is an advocacy initiative aimed at raising awareness of the root causes of inequities and highlighting the work JLA does to impact the self-determination of women and children in Metro Atlanta. Launched in 2015, the JLA has raised more than $300,000 to support its mission and has engaged over 250 women locally as advocates.

For three consecutive days, women will wear the same black dress (or outfit) and a pin that reads “Ask Me About My Dress,” inviting dialogue among colleagues, friends, and strangers about this important initiative. Throughout the week, the JLA and LBDI Advocates will raise awareness regarding the state of literacy within Atlanta.
