Rehabilitation: Betting on the Future – 2025 Conference Recap

Thank you to everyone who joined us for the 2025 RCPAA Conference at Oaklawn Resort in Hot Springs, Arkansas! This year’s event was our best yet, bringing together professionals, students, exhibitors, and sponsors from across the region to explore diverse fields of rehabilitation, including mental health, employment and disability, independent living, ethics, youth and transition, accessibility, multicultural issues, and more.

Over the three-day conference, participants engaged in dynamic general sessions, multiple concurrent trainings, and networking opportunities while also earning CEU, CRC, and LPC credits. Our exhibit hall was full of leading vendors and organizations showcasing resources and tools to support the rehabilitation field. The evenings were a highlight as well; our annual President’s Reception gave everyone a chance to relax, connect, and celebrate with refreshments, music, dancing, and even karaoke.

We are grateful to our presenters, attendees, exhibitors, sponsors, and volunteers who helped make the 2025 conference such a success.
