NDAA's 2026 Sexual Assault Conference

NDAA's 2026 Sexual Assault Conference is a practical, prosecution-focused training designed to support justice advancement in complex sexual assault cases. The conference focuses on how these cases are assessed, developed, litigated, and understood in real-world practice, addressing issues such as trauma, evolving evidence, delayed disclosure, and digital communication. Participants will examine case evolution from intake through trial strategy, learn to build stronger cases through corroboration beyond physical evidence, apply trauma-informed approaches to victim behavior and case development, and strengthen litigation strategies including expert testimony, jury selection, and courtroom presentation. Key topics include technology-facilitated exploitation, digital evidence, alcohol-facilitated sexual assault cases, SART exams, no-injury cases, multidisciplinary collaboration, and coordinated response. The program emphasizes practical application, connecting early case decisions to courtroom presentation, and facilitating peer learning from offices across the country.
