Research & Learning Co-Op · 2026Barna Research & Learning Co-Op · 2026 Cohort
A problem this big. No single organization can answer it alone.
Hunger, homelessness, and trafficking are too large for any one organization to address on its own. The Barna Co-Op brings rescue missions, churches, and frontline ministries together to build the evidence — and the strategy — none of us could build alone.

From the lead researcher
David Kinnaman
CEO, Barna Group
“When mission-driven organizations have to guess, programs close and donors step back. The Co-Op exists so leaders don’t have to guess.”
Since 1984, Barna has conducted more than two million interviews. In partnership with Masterworks and RMA, practitioners — not only researchers — shape the questions.

How it works
Not a report. A learning community.
One cohort, nine months, shaped by the practitioners inside it.
01
Shape the research
You participate in forming the questions that matter most to your work. The findings reflect the field — because you helped design them.
02
Early access to findings
Receive national findings before public release, so your decisions reflect current evidence.
03
Learn with your peers
Quarterly virtual roundtables with mission leaders across the country — shared problems, shared findings, shared next steps.
Choose your track
Choose one initiative, or join both. Each is grounded in national research.
