February is Black History Month. Each week I’m highlighting Kansans who have shaped our community and influenced our nation’s history. Today we highlight Junetta Everett, past chair of the Wichita Regional Chamber of Commerce.
Junetta Everett has been a trailblazer in Kansas business – she began her career working in dental hygiene as the first African American hygienist in Kansas and worked her way up to become a vice president at Delta Dental until her retirement this month. Last year, Junetta became the first African-American and the 6th woman to serve as the Board Chair of the Wichita Regional Chamber. She continues to inspire future generations with her leadership in our community and the business sector. #KansasHistory
