3rd Annual Women Veterans Summit

Welcome to the 2026 Veteran Women’s Summit: Expanding Horizons

Join us at the historic Bob Hope Patriotic Hall in Los Angeles, California for a powerful day of connection, learning, and forward momentum. The 2026 Women Veterans Summit: Expanding Horizons is a gathering designed to bring women veterans together to build meaningful connections, explore new opportunities, and grow in ways that extend far beyond a single day.

This year’s summit brings together women veterans, leaders, advocates, and partners from across the region and beyond for engaging conversations, inspiring speakers, and practical workshops designed to support every stage of the post-service journey. From navigating benefits and advancing careers to prioritizing wellness, developing new skills, and strengthening professional networks, the day is designed to spark ideas and open doors.

Guests can expect a dynamic program featuring keynote conversations, interactive breakout sessions, and dedicated networking time throughout the day. These spaces are intentionally designed to encourage learning, collaboration, and authentic connection among women veterans and the partners who support them.

Whether you are newly transitioned, mid-career, retired, or simply looking to reconnect with community, this summit offers an opportunity to expand your network, discover new perspectives, and leave with tools and relationships that continue long after the event ends.

Stay tuned for more details about a special reception planned for the evening of June 11, offering an additional opportunity to connect, reflect, and begin building relationships ahead of the summit.
