Excel by 5 Virtual Summit 2025

The Excel By 5 Summit 2025 brought together community champions, educators, and partners who are working every day to make Mississippi a more child-friendly place to live and grow. Through inspiring presentations and interactive breakout sessions, participants shared creative ideas for engaging families, strengthening partnerships, and using data to better support young children.

From learning about community resource tools and the ALICE report to exploring real-life strategies that work in local neighborhoods, the summit was a celebration of collaboration and hope. Together, we left encouraged, connected, and ready to keep building communities where every child can thrive.
