Mobilize Recovery joins GXC Live 2026 as the official Advocacy Partner, marking a collaboration between two national organizations committed to strengthening the future of mental health, substance use recovery, and community well-being.
Ryan Hampton and Garrett Hade, of Mobilize Recovery stated, “We are beyond excited to announce the powerful union between Mobilize Recovery and GXC Events! This partnership represents much more than a joint conference – it’s the merging of two powerful, national organizations dedicated to fundamentally changing the landscape of mental health and addiction recovery.
By bringing our teams together, we are fusing Mobilize Recovery’s strength in grassroots advocacy and amplifying the voice of lived experience with GXC Events’ commitment to leadership development and professional innovation. This is a strategic, purposeful collaboration that creates a unified, national platform for change. Together, we will significantly strengthen the collective voice that pushes for policy reform, expanded resources, and a more compassionate culture around mental wellness and recovery outcomes nationwide.”
Mobilize Recovery has built one of the strongest grassroots advocacy networks in the country. Their work brings together people with lived experience, organizers, and community leaders to drive real change: from expanding access to care, to shaping policy, to ensuring the recovery community has a voice in national conversations. Their approach centers lived experience as a source of leadership, insight, and accountability, and this partnership supports GXC’s focus around elevating community voices and ensuring they shape the future of recovery and mental health care.
As Advocacy Partner, Mobilize Recovery will contribute to leadership tracks, policy-focused sessions, and community-driven programming throughout the conference. Their involvement will also support expanded access to GXC Live 2026, including federally funded and concession ticket options, helping more people across the recovery and mental health fields participate.
As GXC Live continues to grow, the event has become a meeting point for professionals, advocates, researchers, and community partners who share a belief in long-term, community-driven recovery. Mobilize Recovery strengthens this effort by ensuring that lived experience remains at the center of the dialogue.
Andrew Roberts of GXC Events commented, “Partnering with Mobilize Recovery feels like a natural step for GXC Live. I’ve always believed that real progress comes from bringing people together and making sure every voice has a place in the conversation. Mobilize Recovery embodies that same belief and working with them strengthens the movement I often talk about: a movement built on lived experience, community action, and shared purpose.
This partnership isn’t symbolic, it’s practical. Mobilize Recovery brings a level of advocacy, leadership, and on-the-ground experience that helps ensure the right people are shaping the discussions that matter. Their involvement expands what we can do, deepens the impact of the work, and keeps us rooted in real outcomes for real people. I also see this partnership as a way to support wider access. Initiatives like federally funded and concession tickets are important because they remove barriers and make it possible for more people to attend. If we want a recovery movement that genuinely represents the communities we serve, then people need to have the chance to show up, connect, and contribute. Together, GXC Events and Mobilize Recovery helps make that possible, and I’m proud we’re doing it together.”
Together, GXC Live 2026 and Mobilize Recovery are working to amplify lived experience, strengthen community capacity, and support long-term progress across the national landscape of mental health, substance use, and recovery.
