We’re excited to announce that registration for the 2026 Annual Meeting in Chicago is now open.
Our programming this year will take place January 8-10, Thursday-Saturday.
Our Annual Business Meeting and the “Weird Catholicism” event are slated for the evening of January 9, and the Mass and Social will be held on January 10. New forthis year, the Presidential Roundtable, “Catholicism and Disability at the Intersection of History and Practice,” will be held on the evening of January 8. The ACHA Distinguished Service Award will be bestowed then
All of this year’s ACHA sessions are scheduled for the Chicago Hilton. A full schedule is available here.
I am also happy to announce that we have lined up two offsite tours for the morning of January 8. One will be a tour of the Archives of the Archdiocese of Chicago, hosted by Meg Romero Hall. The other is a walking tour of parishes in Chicago’s Pilsen neighborhood which highlights the successive waves of immigrants who have left their mark on its Catholic geography, hosted by Deborah Kanter.
Finally, as in past years, it is the AHA’s policy that all presenters attending the ACHA meeting must also register for the AHA annual conference. Please keep this in mind as you plan for Chicago.
We look forward to seeing you in January!

Program Chair, Chicago 2026
Once again, the ACHA will produce a high-quality, full-color program for distribution at the Annual Meeting. This is a great way to advertise your department, organization, or even your latest book. It also helps the ACHA to cover our conference expenses.
