Domestic Violence Summit 2026 (10/21/2026)

This is a hybrid event with an in-person and a webinar option. Please select the appropriate button to register. Event will be held at The Chicago Bar Association (321 S. Plymouth Court, Chicago, IL).

Domestic Violence is a critical issue that affects not only the individuals directly involved but also their families, communities, and our society at large. Domestic violence does not discriminate. It touches people across race, age, gender and religious lines and it can occur regardless of someone’s level of education or socioeconomic status. Domestic violence perpetuates more violence. 

The legal community plays an integral role in shaping the systems that impact survivors of domestic violence and is in a unique position to advocate for change. 

Join us for the 2026 Domestic Violence Summit, co-sponsored by The Chicago Bar Association and Wings, which will bring together leading voices and advocates to address the urgent issue of domestic violence through dialogue and education. The program will be immediately followed by a networking reception.
