Call for Proposals 2024 Correctional Mental Health Care Conference



Deadline February 2

Share your knowledge and expertise at the 2024 Correctional Mental Health Care Conference, taking place July 21-22 in San Juan, Puerto Rico

Serious mental illness, substance use disorders, and suicide prevention continue to top the list of challenges facing jails, prisons, and correctional health providers. Other concerns include brain injury, ethics, gender dysphoria, legal and ethical concerns, psychotropic meds, PTSD, quality, reentry, segregation, and trauma.

Clinicians and administrators alike will attend to learn from leaders who can help them manage mental health care delivery. Network and connect with mental health professionals from all over the country from urban and rural, large and small jails, prisons, and juvenile detention facilities. Speakers receive a discount on conference registration.

Present a case study or research report; teach the field about the latest best practices or new findings; share how your facility succeeded in overcoming a short- or long-term challenge. The education committee has added a new express 20-minute presentation type called “lightning sessions” to add to the variety of learning options.

It’s easy to get there. Puerto Rico has 120+ daily nonstop flights to major cities throughout the United States. There are nonstop flights available to and from Miami, Fort Lauderdale, Tampa, Jacksonville, Orlando, Charlotte, Philadelphia, Hartford, Washington D.C., Baltimore, Newark, New York, Boston, Chicago, Houston, Dallas, Atlanta, Cleveland, Detroit, Minneapolis, Raleigh-Durham, Nashville, St. Louis, and Denver.
