One System, One Team. We’re building a 2027 Virtual Conference that brings custody and health care together to improve outcomes — and we’re looking for proposals that show what real collaboration can achieve.

We want sessions that deliver practical tools, real‑world solutions, and measurable results across care, custody, behavioral health, administration, and operations. Case studies, protocols, checklists, lessons learned — if your team has made something work, we want to highlight it.
