The 15th National Conference on Higher Education in Prison

NCHEP 15 will be organized around the theme, Beyond Access. This conference calls the higher education in prison field to move beyond celebrating entry points and toward examining the integrity, depth, and potential of education during incarceration. In this time of shifting policies, funding challenges, and evolving student needs, sustainability means more than survival; it must reflect equity, accountability, and long-term impact.
