Meet the Voices Leading Change at Our 2026 Conference

We are delighted to announce this year’s conference keynote speakers who embody hope, empowerment, and resilience. Through their stories and insights, they reflect the heart of advocacy — showing how intentional actions, big or small, can create lasting change. Their voices will inspire us to keep moving forward, ensuring every child is supported, seen, and surrounded by the promise of a brighter future. 

Look for additional speaker announcements in the upcoming months as we lead up to the opening of registration on July 8, 2026.
