2026 SPONSORSHIP OPPORTUNITIES

• Exhibit/Sponsor at JAILCON Regional Conferences - We do it differently--at JAILCON, sponsors and exhibitors aren’t an afterthought—they’re an integral part of the JAILCON experience. We intentionally design our conferences to maximize meaningful interaction, with events and activities strategically built around a single, dedicated exhibit hall. This approach creates consistent foot traffic, genuine conversations, and real relationship-building with corrections decision-makers. It’s our way of showing appreciation for your support—by ensuring your investment translates into visibility, access, and connections that matter. Once again, in 2026, you will have the opportunity to connect with attendees from across the country by attending one, two, or all three of our regional conferences!
