She is the first and only African American woman appointed to serve as a member of the Laurel City Council in 2011.

The Honorable Valerie Nicholas has been a Laurel history maker since her appointment to the Laurel City Council in 2011. She is the first and only African American woman to serve in the role, to date. Valerie is a compassionate community servant and considers her role as a “labor of love and legislation”. 2011 was an inspirational year for her, as in addition to adjusting to her new role as Councilwoman, she also revived her non-profit, Love Is Not Enough, Inc.. This organization was born from her own painful experiences of domestic abuse, from a young girl to adulthood.
Join us for a wonderfully impactful discussion.
