Volunteer Opportunities

It takes all of us to make our conference a success. We could not put this conference on each year without the generous dedication and support of our conference volunteers!

Please consider giving back to the community by signing up to volunteer during one of our time slots and give back to the community at large. Every hour counts – thank you for your generosity and service!

For questions about volunteering, please contact conference@collegiaterecovery.org.

There will be a volunteer orientation on June 12, 2026 at 2pm ET (recorded). If you miss the live session, be sure to watch out posted recording so that you feel confident in your volunteer role!

Send Feedback

ARHE, ARS, and AAPG are committed to providing the best possible experience for all those attending the conference this year. While we regularly collect post-conference feedback which is considered in part of the planning process, we want to give attendees an opportunity to provide feedback prior to the conference so that we can ensure these considerations are made.
This form also provides a way for individuals to express an interest in carpooling to the Annual Conference in Denver and/or partnering with a roommate to share the expense of hotel lodging.
