The NC “One Community in Recovery” Conference is a place where individuals working and involved in recovery as defined in its broadest terms can share their work and gain support from others involved in the recovery movement. The conference is primarily focused on promoting the growth of the North Carolina Recovery Movement, teaching participants how to get recovery programming up and running in their own communities, showcasing the most progressive recovery practices, and bringing individuals interested in the recovery movement together as students and partners. Exhibits are open to state agencies, public and private corporations and foundations, local organizations, service organizations and community based organizations involved in providing services that support the recovery of the person as a whole.
