Interested in
sponsoring the conference?
Our conferences aren’t possible without our incredible lineup of sponsors! Your sponsorship will be going towards three main areas:
Conference Logistics
The bread and butter of our conference is the logistics. This includes our venue, food, systems to collect registration, giveaways, and more. Our venue is being held at the Houston Food Bank and all food will be provided through them.
Keynote Speaker
Finding identity outside of the eating disorder can be one of the key components that leave people feeling stuck. We are excited for this year’s keynote speaker to provide hope and insight on how to walk through this process by sharing their personal experiences related to finding their own identity outside of recovery and their relationship with food and body image.
InkFactory
If our budget allows, we would love to bring a live artist to the conference through InkFactory who can draw the key takeaways in real time. This drawing would also be provided digitally to all attendees. You can learn more about InkFactory and see examples on their website here.
