Thriving Communities Summit: Advancing Whole Child Success Through Collective Responsibility 2026

The Thriving Communities Summit, presented by the San Diego County Office of Education and the County of San Diego in support of the Live Well San Diego vision, is a free, one-day event at the Town and Country Resort. This summit connects the region's community and education sectors to elevate well-being through community schools and improve outcomes for the whole child and every person in every community. It aims to create a collaborative learning and action experience, bringing together leaders and practitioners from education, health, behavioral health, social services, youth development, community and faith-based organizations, philanthropy, businesses, local governments, and public-sector agencies. The goal is to strengthen a shared commitment to creating conditions where every child, family, and community has the opportunity to thrive, exploring evidence-informed strategies, elevating promising practices, and engaging in meaningful cross-sector dialogue.
