The Call for Presentations is now open for the 2026 National Rural Institute on Alcohol, Drugs and Addictions (“The Rural”), taking place June 7–11, 2026 at UW-Stout in Menomonie, WI. As a proud sponsor, NALGAP encourages members to submit proposals that address the unique needs and challenges faced by LGBTQ+ individuals in rural communities—especially during this critical time for access, equity, and culturally responsive care.

Presenters may submit proposals for a four-hour Track or a one-hour Special Topic session. Compensation options include honoraria or complimentary conference registration.

If you’re interested in contributing your expertise to this long-standing and meaningful event, we invite you to apply.
