Register to secure your spot for an evening convening that brings together faith leaders, higher education partners, employers and reentry organizations to address the challenges and opportunities faced by individuals pursuing education after incarceration. The event is designed to deepen understanding, strengthen collaboration and invite new partners into the 2026 Strategic Planning process for VCHEP.
Too often, conversations about education, reentry, probation, and court systems overlook the role of disability. This three-day virtual conference puts disability access and equity front and center, highlighting voices of people with lived experience alongside educators, advocates, and leaders. Hosted by Mokse Educational Services and The Community.
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.
