Like the sun coming up in the east, Recovery-Based and Peer-Supported mental health and substance abuse services and supports are rising - and shining - in eastern North Carolina! 

 

To demonstrate this, East Carolina Behavioral Health (ECBH) invites you to join us for our 2nd Annual ECBH Wellness Recovery Conference & Expo, May 1, 2008, Greenville Convention Center, Greenville, NC. 

Our theme for this year’s conference is “Recovery: The Power within US!”   More and more people affected by mental health and substance abuse struggles are learning they can change their lives for the better through a focus on wellness, recovery, and peer support.  The power is within us - as individuals, as families, as communities, and as systems working together. 

Highlights of this year's conference include:

  • Lori Ashcraft, PhD, internationally acclaimed Recovery and Peer Support innovator, author, and speaker;
  • Professional CEUs offered through Eastern Area Health Education Center (AHEC);
  • A Wellness Recovery Expo venue for 74 exhibits;
  • Multi-level Sponsorship and Exhibitor opportunities;
  • A statewide marketing and registration campaign;
  • Conference seating for 800-1,000 attendees from throughout eastern North Carolina and beyond;
  • First ever "This Person" Awards Ceremony recognizing peer-nominated recipients who have made positive difference in a peer's life.
  • A target audience including individuals and families, peer supporters, behavioral health practitioners, social workers, educators and students, health and human service professionals, self-help and advocacy groups, law enforcement personnel, representatives from faith-based and community organizations, business leaders, and concerned citizens.

    Please join us and bring the power within you to make a difference for yourself and others.
