Our Programs

Every program we offer is designed around the whole woman — not just her hair.

PIECES offers virtual talks and in-person community events on the topics that matter most to women living with alopecia: the medical facts, the emotional impact, the dietary and physical health connections, and the mental health journey. We have partnered with the Columbia Public Library system and community health organizations to bring these conversations to women across the Midlands.

Our goal is simple: no woman should have to Google her diagnosis alone.

Education & Awareness

A table with promotional materials including brochures, flyers, tote bags, and QR code cards related to a faith-based initiative called "A Soulful Journey with Xplorea." The table displays a large illustration of three diverse women with their eyes closed and serene expressions, with hair styled and adorned with flowers and jewelry.

Our private Facebook community is a safe space for women living with alopecia and hair loss to speak freely — without fear of judgment, unsolicited advice, or unwanted sales pitches. Membership is by request only to protect the privacy and dignity of our members.

To inquire about joining, send us a direct message on Facebook or Instagram. We will reach out personally.

The BeYOUtiFULL Project

Once a year, PIECES hosts the BeYOUtiFULL Project — an annual fundraising campaign and women's empowerment experience that celebrates the resilience, beauty, and stories of women living with alopecia. Ambassadors are photographed, and at the BeYOUtiFULL Project brunch, they unveil their portraits and share what the experience meant to them.

It is part fundraiser, part celebration, and entirely transformative.

(Annual Women's Empowerment Event)

This event is open to all women ages 18 to 65+ and provides a wholistic approach to health and wellness. There are experts in the field of mental health, Black Maternal Health, Cardiac Care and much more. This expo provides education, light medical care, as well as a networking component, allowing community-based organizations to connect. PIECES initially hosted this event in 2019 and were thrilled to bring this back to Columbia in 2026.
