Women who use the New Life Program for their personal recovery are encouraged to apply! We have mentors willing to help you make your first workshop a success, as well as a number of resources available for repeated topics (i.e. Relapse Prevention, First Year, etc.). Workshop presenters receive a complimentary Base Registration, which covers Fri-Sun meals, double room, and conference activities ($300 value in 2019).

Submission deadline is February 1, 2020.

  • Programming Workgroup - Developing the formal, official conference activities such as keynote addresses, workshops (breakout sessions, paid-for Friday sessions), WFS meetings.
  • Hospitality & Informal Activities Workgroup – Additional activities and touches that make the conference an all-around great experience.
  • Finance & Budgeting Workgroup - All things financial related to the event.
