MARCH 7, 2026 | A half-day VIRTUAL convening
join us
Jeremiah Program SummitX Weekend
SummitX 2026 is a virtual half-day convening that brings together thousands of single moms from across the country for a high-energy experience rooted in one truth: Community isn’t something we talk about — it’s something we do. Community is a verb.
Be part of the largest gathering of single moms ever. We’ll connect, learn, and take collective action toward the change we want to see in ourselves, our families, and our communities.
From reflections on parenting during these uncertain times to leveraging AI and emerging workforce opportunities to the importance of self-care and the stories that are told about us and the stories we tell ourselves — SummitX is an event where sisterhood becomes movement.
