JP Summit 2025

Overview

Jeremiah Program Summit Weekend

JP’s annual summit weekend is a community space for reflection, conversation, and celebration of our most important stakeholders, JP families and alumni.

Over the course of three days and over 20 hours of programming we bring together 1500 voices including those of student parents, board members, educators, change makers, and single moms across the country — all sharing a common goal of economic mobility and a belief that when moms win, families win— and yes, our communities win.

The Power of Collective Dreaming

JP President and CEO Chastity Lord reflects on the adage, “It takes a village.” It may seem cliché, she says, but it’s real. We do nothing alone.
