National Conference on Citizenship

About this event

Join us in Lexington, Kentucky , for NCoC’s 2026 Conference—the national gathering for people shaping the future of civic life in America.

You’ll connect with civic leaders, funders, policymakers, researchers, journalists, and community builders; hear fresh ideas and perspectives from across the country; roll up your sleeves for collaborative problem-solving; and build relationships across sectors. Expect thought-provoking keynotes and fireside conversations, hands-on workshops, meaningful networking, and practical tools you can bring home and put to work. This isn’t just a conference—it’s a chance to be part of the people, ideas, and collaborations strengthening civic life for the years ahead.

Agenda and more details, coming soon!

If overnight accommodations are needed, we suggest the Hilton Lexington Downtown (where our welcome reception is taking place). Shuttles will also run to/from the conference venue from the Hilton. You can find available rooms and rates, HERE.
