2026 Colorado Rural Peer Conference

Join us for the 2026 Colorado Rural Peer Conference, a statewide gathering of peer recovery professionals, advocates, and community partners working to strengthen recovery systems across rural Colorado.

Hosted by The Health Partnership Recovery Program, this three-day conference offers education, connection, and collaboration focused on peer support and recovery-oriented systems of care.

Resilience is essential in peer recovery work.

It is what supports us through challenges, strengthens our ability to serve others, and helps build sustainable recovery systems in rural communities.

This year’s conference centers on developing and sustaining resilience in both individuals and the peer workforce as a whole.

• Peer-led workshops and lived experience learning
• Workforce development sessions
• Practical tools for recovery support work
• Opportunities for statewide connection
• Time for reflection, growth, and restoration
