2026 VTC Symposium

The Veterans Treatment Court Symposium audience includes a wide range of stakeholders, experts, and innovators, all dedicated to learning about, sharing information and resources, and discussing all matters related to justice-involved Veterans, active military, and their families. Past attendees for our annual conferences include judicial officers, public defenders, district attorneys, probation officers, law enforcement, treatment providers, social workers, court staff, policy makers, researchers, and more. 

Whether you’re a judicial officer recently assigned to a Veterans Court or military diversion calendar, a probation officer just assigned to a collaborative court team, or an attorney looking to better serve this specific population, the VTC Symposium offers learning opportunities and connections to the community you need to learn and grow.

The 2026 Symposium will be held in-person from May 6 – 8, 2026. The symposium will be held in Los Angeles, CA at the Bob Hope Patriotic Hall. The event will feature keynote speakers, plenary sessions, breakout sessions, and a networking reception. Wednesday is afternoon-only, Thursday is a full-day of instruction and networking, and Friday begins in the morning with release at 2pm.

Symposium registration is $250, flat-rate. There are no discounts for members or early-bird registrants.  Mentors who are attending the all-day mentor bootcamp on Thursday, May 7, 2026 is at no-cost to the mentor; however, they must register and choose their meals for the day. If you are willing and able, we have offered an opportunity to sponsor a mentor at $75 (in addition to registration, with total cost being $325).
