This event in Akron, Ohio is inspired by the LeBron James Family Foundation’s work to redefine what a community and family looks like by listening and responding. It is intended to turn a desire for change into partnerships and actions that deliver results by demonstrating how a set of principles have been applied to a number of issues. As people gain a vision for what this could look like, they can either contribute to the opportunities presented or imagine new ways to address issues they see in their communities.

This year’s theme “Every Person Empowered” will focus on expressing the paradigm shift needed to transform communities and ensure everyone has an opportunity to live a life of meaning and help others along the way. We will discuss how a deeper understanding of empowerment can contribute to people-centered solutions – ones that search for the best way to help people improve their lives, instead of telling them how to live their lives.

The Huddle provides an opportunity to unite a diversity of voices and actively listen to those with firsthand knowledge about the obstacles, hard work, passion, and determination required to transform the way society tackles the biggest problems of our time.

Our collective goal remains to foster a broad community of stakeholders who can take these ideas forward and drive action through their own programs and networks in ways that work for their community.

We believe every individual has the potential to live a life of meaning and purpose and are committed to sharing key insights from some of the most effective community-based work in the country and inspiring action so that every community can thrive.

This is our Mission that feeds our Movement.
