Parenting for Justice Virtual Summit

A 5-Day Virtual Gathering to reimagine parenting as an act of justice

20 EXPERT SPEAKERS

share their wisdom to guide you in raising liberated children and rooting your family in a spirit of love, liberation and belonging

April 13 - 17, 2026

The Space You've Been Longing For...

You’ve read the books. You’ve tried the programs. You’ve shown up in parenting spaces that promised support, but rarely reflected your lived experience.

The Parenting for Justice Virtual Summit is not just another event—it’s a spirit-rooted, justice-centered gathering for parents, caregivers, educators, and community leaders who are raising the next generation with intention, courage, and care.

This is not another one-size-fits-all parenting event. It is a collective learning space grounded in spirituality, psychology, healing and liberation- designed to support families navigating an unjust world while nurturing joy, resilience and wholeness at home.

Here, you'll learn practices and insight that root your parenting in presence and compassion, connect personal healing to collective transformation, and invite justice and belonging into everyday family life.

If you’ve been yearning for a space that sees your full humanity and equips you to raise children with communal care and hope- this is that space.

Parenting in Today’s World is Not Easy

Parenting in today’s world is not easy—especially when you’re navigating systems that were never built with your family or your kid in mind.
Whether you’re a BIPOC mother advocating at IEP meetings, a queer or trans caregiver shielding your child from daily harm, or a faith-rooted educator trying to honor every child’s full humanity—you feel the weight.

This summit is a space to exhale. To reimagine parenting beyond survival, and receive the tools, spiritual grounding and community care you’ve been craving. You are not alone—and you were never meant to parent like you are.

This Summit is For You If…

This summit is for you if you’ve ever sat in a parenting space and felt unseen or unheard. If you’ve wrestled with how to guide your child without harm, how to protect joy under constant pressure, or how to raise young people—who know deep in their bones—that they are loved, safe and worthy.

It's for those of us who are healing while parenting, unlearning inherited harms while caregiving, and choosing justice without surrendering our tenderness or our joy.

For parents, caregivers, educators, and faith-rooted leaders who are raising and supporting children from a place of liberation, love and lived experience—this summit is for you.

Does Any of This Resonate?

Join us for this 5-day virtual gathering featuring 20+ parents, educators, psychologists, ministers, theologians, youth advocates and community leaders who are reimagining what it means to raise children with radical love—grounded in ancestral wisdom, spiritual practice, and justice.

Each day offers meaningful conversations, embodied practices, and real-world tools you can carry into everyday life. You’ll leave with language, clarity and courage to parent and lead in ways that align with your values—not the systems we’re working to transform.

This summit gathers parents, caregivers, and justice-rooted leaders who understand the challenges and the joys of parenting for justice. You’ll find solidarity, encouragement, and meaningful connection within a community that truly gets it.

Be Part of Positive Change That Begins at Home
