The challenges facing leaders in the homelessness response system are changing, and how we come together as a field is changing, too.
The 2027 Leadership Summit on Ending Homelessness brings together leaders from across the homelessness response system to connect, collaborate, and tackle the challenges shaping our work. It’s a space to exchange ideas, strengthen relationships, and build solutions alongside leaders from across the country.
New this year, the Alliance is introducing the LEAD Institute, an optional, one-day professional development experience designed for leaders in similar roles and leadership contexts. The Institute offers a more focused setting to strengthen leadership skills, work through shared challenges, and learn alongside peers. The LEAD Institute is a pre-summit add-on and requires an additional registration fee.
Together, the Leadership Summit and LEAD Institute create two distinct but complementary opportunities: focused leadership development and broader cross-functional collaboration.
Event Schedule
The Leadership Summit kicks off with the opening Networking Reception at 6:00 P.M. on Monday, March 1, 2027.
The optional LEAD Institute takes place before the Summit on Monday, March 1, from 9:00 A.M. – 5:15 P.M. and requires a separate registration fee.
