Tulsa Area United Way invites you to the 2026 Executive Leadership Forum, a focused breakfast briefing designed for business and community leaders.



This year’s forum will examine homelessness and housing stability through a practical, cross-sector lens. Attendees will hear from leaders closest to issues around housing, nonprofit services, civic partnership, and public safety to better understand the barriers facing our community, how complex challenges show up in real life, and the coordinated efforts creating progress.



As a funder, convener, and community investor, Tulsa Area United Way helps bring people, resources, and strategies together to support effective work. The Executive Leadership Forum is an opportunity to better understand why sustained collaboration matters and consider how executive leadership can help strengthen solutions that move our community forward.
