The landscape for land banks is changing. Are you ready to adapt and thrive?

The 2025 National Land Bank Network Summit is the premier event for urban, suburban, and rural land bank leaders to come together and shape the future of community revitalization.

This conference is your opportunity to join your peers and strengthen the national movement stewarding vacant properties for the public good. The 2025 NLBN Summit will equip you to address the evolving challenges your communities face—like housing affordability, extreme weather, managing vacant land and more. Access tools and actionable solutions, build meaningful relationships, and return home inspired by stories of success to drive change and create stronger, more just communities.
