The Spirit of Houston Conference believes we have a responsibility to carry the message of recovery to those who need it most - the newcomer and those struggling to stay sober, regardless of the ability to pay for registration. This conference is self-supporting through registration proceeds. Funds collected through our scholarship drives and registrations ensure that those unable to pay will never be turned away.
If you are new, it is our greatest desire that this conference gives you a vision of the exciting, productive and satisfying life you can have in sobriety. We hope this conference brings renewed strength, hope, and passion to your recovery.
