Foster Care Coded: The Belonging Summit

Technology is invited. Humanity is required.

The Foster Care Coded: Belonging Summit brings together people with lived experience, foster and adoptive families, practitioners, technologists, creators, researchers, builders, and allies to explore one central question:

How might we create more belonging for people impacted by foster care?

Not only by talking about what is broken, but by imagining, sharing, and building what could be better.

You do not need a particular title, degree, organization, or professional background to contribute.

We are interested in lived experience, practical ideas, creative approaches, emerging technology, research, things already working in communities, and ideas that haven’t been tried yet.

Share an Idea

You don’t need a polished presentation. Start with what you know, what you’ve experienced, or what you’re imagining.

Have an idea but aren’t sure where it fits? Apply anyway. Need help completing the application? Contact us.

Step 1 of 4: About you

About you

Optional. “Independent” is perfectly fine.
