B.A.R.E. Inc. is proud to host the inaugural B.A.R.E. Impact Symposium, a national gathering of leaders, advocates, and innovators united by one mission: to end homelessness and build pathways to stability.
Taking place on October 29-30, 2026, this first-of-its-kind event will bring together organizations from across the country that are redefining how communities respond to housing insecurity. Through powerful conversations, data-driven strategies, and real-world collaboration, we'll explore what it takes to move people from shelter to stability - and from surviving to thriving.
Attendees will gain access to panels, breakout sessions, and networking sessions with experts across housing, healthcare, philanthropy, and policy. Together, we'll share what works, challenge what doesn't, and build the partnerships that drive systemic change.
Join us as we turn ideas into action - and solutions into homes.
BARE is now accepting speaker applications for the 2026 Homelessness Symposium. We are looking for voices with real insight and real experience, whether that comes from direct service, research, community leadership, or lived experience. If you are helping drive better outcomes in housing, health, or crisis response, we want to hear from you.
The event is built around four core pillars:
Speakers should be ready to share practical strategies, lessons learned, and ideas that move communities forward.
If you or your organization have something meaningful to contribute, submit your application. Tell us what you bring and why it matters. We plan to build a lineup that is honest, solution driven, and rooted in the work happening on the ground.
