🎤 CALL FOR SPEAKERS
The 2nd Annual Changing Face of Addiction Virtual Summit
📅 Saturday, September 13, 2025
🧠 Theme: The Wounded Among Us
We’re looking for 12 powerful voices to help us unpack one essential truth:
👉 Addiction no longer lives on the margins.
It lives in our homes, our workplaces, our schools—and often, in silence.
This year’s summit is dedicated to The Wounded Among Us—the parents silently struggling, the professionals unraveling behind performance, the teens numbing their pain with screens or substances.
If you have personal or professional insight into the rising rates of substance or behavioral addictions, and more importantly, solution-focused strategies, we invite you to apply.
🎯 Suggested Topics May Include:
*The link between unresolved trauma and modern addiction
*Behavioral addictions: gambling, porn, food, work, screens
*Reintegration after treatment: what works and what fails
*The rise of addiction in high-functioning professionals
*How families can support without enabling
*Shame, stigma, and the stories we don’t tell
*Ethical innovation in treatment and recovery
*Spirituality and healing for the wounded
*Prevention strategies for teens and Gen Z
*Cultural influences: perfectionism, performance, and burnout
💻 This is a virtual, 6-hour summit with 12 featured speakers, interactive panels, and a reach of over 500 participants.
🟡 There is a $125 speaker fee to help cover production and promotion costs.
🔗 Applications close Friday, June 21. Speakers will be announced by July 5.
📣 If you have a voice, a story, a strategy—or all three—we want to hear from you.
