The Access to Justice Network hosts a conference every 2 years, to bring together justice professionals and others interested in innovations for the legal system.

The A2J Network’s biennial conference brings together 300+ leaders from across jurisdictions to collaborate, learn, and drive innovation forward. This builds off of the SRLN (Self-Represented Litigation Network) conferences that were held every 2 years.

The upcoming A2J Netwprl Conference is planned for September or October 2026 and we are seeking a strong local host to partner with us on space, logistics, and local programming.
