Summer is about more than sunshine and time outside. It’s also an opportunity to connect with families, build relationships, and share resources that strengthen our community.

We’re especially grateful for our partnership with the Saint Paul Police Department and the many organizations working together to help create a safer, healthier community.

We're looking for sponsors for Breaking the Surface 2026, Northern Minnesota's Recovery Summit, taking place June 30th at the Gichi-Ziibi Center in Brainerd.
This is more than a conference. It's a room full of recovery professionals, peer support specialists, healthcare providers, community advocates, and individuals committed to changing lives in our region.

✅ Visibility with a highly engaged, mission-driven audience
✅ Recognition in event materials, signage, and social media
✅ The chance to align your brand with a cause that matters
✅ Supporting critical recovery education in Northern Minnesota

Whether you're a healthcare organization, treatment center, nonprofit, or local business — your support helps make this day possible for everyone who walks through those doors.
