2026 Movement is Life Annual Summit

About the Summit

Strength in Motion: Reimagining health through community, policy and partnership

September 24-25, 2026 | Detroit, Michigan

The 2026 Movement is Life Annual Summit is a national convening of diverse leaders, healthcare professionals, changemakers, and community voices committed to dismantling health disparities and advancing equity, together.

Guided by this year’s theme, “Strength in Motion: Reimagining health through community, policy and partnership,” reflects our belief that meaningful change requires movement on multiple levels—physical, social, and systemic. Movement is Life serves as a bridge between healthcare institutions and community realities, creating spaces where trust is rebuilt, voices are elevated, and collaboration leads to action. By centering women and fostering partnerships grounded in respect and shared purpose, we are helping reshape how health, aging, and mobility are understood and addressed.
