2026 Centering Black Excellence Community Conversations Symposium
December 9 @ 9:00 am - 4:30 pm
Community Conversations for Improving Outcomes for Children of Color
Join us for the second annual Centering Black Excellence Community Conversations Symposium, a two-day gathering focused on community wisdom, meaningful dialogue, and practical action to improve outcomes for children of color.
Centering Black experiences and expertise, the symposium brings together early childhood professionals, family support providers, community leaders, and others working alongside children and families. Together, we will explore the challenges shaping children’s experiences, learn from community strengths, and identify ways to create more equitable and inclusive environments.
This year’s expanded format offers more time to connect with featured panelists and one another. Each day includes a morning panel, smaller afternoon Community Conversations, wellness practices, and opportunities to reflect on what the learning means for your work.
