Alana Grant

DEI consultant

First a believer, wife, mother, friend and advocate, Alana Grant serves as president of Grant & Grant Consulting and executive director of Richland County Public Education Partners. 

In 2015, Alana started the #HateWontWin Movement on social media to counter the hate-field violence she experienced when her grandfather was murdered at Mother Emanuel AME Church in Charleston, South Carolina. After spending years encouraging people to show acts of love to people who are different from them in an effort to prevent hate crimes and promote unity, Alana and her now husband, Hamilton Grant, started Grant & Grant Consulting where Alana serves as a diversity, equity, and inclusion consultant. Through this role, Alana consults groups on how to make a long-lasting impact by taking preventative measures to address things like bias, prejudice, and discrimination. 

Alana has partnered with schools, churches, businesses, and community organizations across the country spreading the message of unity while strategizing for tangible change in our nation. For her work, Alana has received recognition from many organizations most notably the Anti-Defamation League, the King Center, Public Allies, Glamour Magazine, Essence Magazine, the Steve Harvey Show, the Jefferson Awards and many others. 

Alana is a native of Newport News, Virginia, and a resident of Columbia, South Carolina. She’s a graduate of two HBCUs, Elizabeth City State University and Norfolk State University, and she’s a member of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc. She’s also the wife of Hamilton Grant, the mother of Hamilton II and Harrison, and a daughter, sister and friend. 

As a person Alana believes in the power of God and the peace of being in his will, the importance of treating people as blessings in word and in deed, and the responsibility of using her gifts to leave spaces better than she found them.
