Care To Contribute?

What’s Your Subject?

Because our goal is to expand the capacity and quality of recovery housing in rural America, we’re most interested in SUD-related presentations on the subject of best practices, innovation, research, and collaboration in the provision of essential services, particularly the building of effective recovery ecosystems.

What’s In It For You

In addition to increasing your national visibility, you’ll be featured on our website, in our monthly newsletter, and in other Fletcher Group promotional materials.

• Monthly one-hour webinars presented virtually
• Courses presented through our Online Learning Center
• At conferences attended by the Fletcher Group
