FEATURED SPEAKER

Barbara Dixon Ryan is a lawyer, substance use disorder counselor, peer recovery specialist, and a lover of people. She has taken seminary level courses from the Christian Counseling and Education Foundation and is an avid reader and gleaner in the field of substance use recovery. She has been active in her own recovery community for 15 years and writes, counsels, and teaches on Biblical themes. She is the mother of three, the grandmother of three, and wife of one (with whom separation-unto-reconciliation was twice necessary). Her youngest daughter is non-verbal, severely developmentally challenged, and is on the autism spectrum. The Lord God has given her the tongue of one who has been taught, so that she can sustain others who are weary with words of encouragement. 

Doors open at 7:30 a.m. for coffee & networking.
