This year’s theme, Bridges to Empowerment, highlights the many pathways people take to find and sustain an empowering recovery journey. We continue to have an unprecedented opportunity to make the promise of multiple pathways to recovery a reality in more and more diverse communities!

We welcome all submissions, and will be prioritizing presentations that focus on:

• Research relevant to SMART Recovery's empowering approach

• Integrating SMART with authentic peer-based recovery supports

• Adopting a harm reduction mindset to include all participants, regardless of their chosen goal

• Exploring SMART’s newest and revised tools (self-compassion, mindfulness, validation, etc.)

• Growing and strengthening SMART’s Family & Friends program

One complimentary conference registration will be provided per selected proposal. Travel expenses are the responsibility of the presenters.
