thank you for joining us! see you next year!

It was so wonderful to see all the beautiful faces of recovery gathered together for a week of community in Seaside. We are honored to have the opportunity to host this conference every year, and to give peers the opportunity to grow professionally and personally. As we reflect on the incredible moments we shared, and the connections we fostered together, we’re filled with gratitude for the opportunity of serving and uplifting our peers. Join us as we get reminisce on the moments that made this Peerpocalypse amazing!

Party at the Help Desk

Attendees gathered at the help desk to pick their favorite ribbons, pins, and decorate their name badges for the conference

Check!

Our check in process went smoother than ever this year, with staff manning the registration table ready to give away bags and shirts.

Who are you?

Peers often race for the ribbon box to snag the ribbons that resonate with them the most, from Curiosuer and Curiouser to Tattoo Enthusiast

Never too busy for a smile

Attendees have full plates during Peerpocalypse, but there's always enough time for a good joke!

It's okay to get lost -

- that's what we're here for! Melissa Bishop stands at the ready to point an attendee in the right direction.

Say cheeessseee!

Happy faces!

We love when attendees are happy!

Interesting exhibits!

This year we had over almost 30 exhibitors lining the halls with services, information, and merch. They sure didn't disappoint, as many of them had crowds like this filling the halls

Kevin Fitts knows best!

Kevin Fitts speaks to attendees about Peer Networks. His booth had a plethora of information and his iconic shirts (as seen on Fitts)

Exhibitors of all kinds

Our exhibitors come from a variety of backgrounds. Some are peer organizations while others are not. Regardless of what they do, they are always interesting!

Can't miss an update!

The cool thing about signing up for an email is that it's a surefire way be part of a community that fits your interests. Many of our exhibitors gave the opportunity for attendees to keep up long past the conference.

Microcosm Publishing, always a hit

Like we said, not all our exhibitors are peer organizations. Some, like Microcosm Publishing, are local businesses ready to make a difference. Microcosm brought 3 tables worth of interesting books, pins, and information ready to help make a change in people's lives. Maybe the books are the peers?

Drumming by Wellbriety

This incredible drum circle kicked off the festivities with energizing beats.

A Trip through the week

We tried our best to document some of the best moments of the week, from the moment we opened the doors to the moment we closed them. Flip through and take a loot at some of our favorite moments.
