Deadline to submit: November 25, 2025

RISE hosts more than 7,000 attendees each year and draws representatives from all models of treatment court; leaders, policymakers, and other key stakeholders from the legal, treatment, and social service fields; and leaders from recovery and veteran communities. Together, we connect, get inspired, and learn the latest evidence-based practices for serving justice-involved individuals impacted by substance use, mental health, and co-occurring disorders and trauma.

New This Year

At All Rise, we're continually seeking to improve the RISE experience for everyone involved. This year, the proposal submission process will have two new features:

1. To better facilitate the submission, review, and selection process, all RISE26 session proposals must be submitted using our new conference proposal portal.
2. To promote effective and scalable learning for all attendees, all RISE26 session proposals must be designated by audience skill/knowledge level: beginner/intermediate/advanced.

Proposal Criteria

We're seeking session proposals that fall into one of three categories. All proposals must be grounded in scientific research and evidence-based best practices:

1. Treatment court specific – Proposals provide research findings, data analysis, and best practice implementation on the various treatment court models.
2. Justice innovation – Proposals highlight innovative justice system responses to emerging challenges. Topics may include but are not limited to cross-system collaboration, law enforcement, pretrial services, probation/community supervision, reentry services, or other solutions that promote accountability, public safety, and public health.
3. Treatment innovation – Proposals highlight innovative social service and treatment responses to emerging challenges. Topics may include but are not limited to effective treatment, long-term recovery management, family-centered practices, housing, employment, vocational approaches, or other solutions that promote recovery, public health, and public safety.
