Thirty-five men and women from 19 states graduated on November 18, 2022, as members of Class 44 of the National Jail Leadership Command Academy (NJLCA). The leadership program is a collaboration of the American Jail Association and the Correctional Management Institute of Texas and is held on the campus of Sam Houston State University in Huntsville, Texas.

Through five days of instruction by veteran jail practitioners and through interaction with one another, graduates developed leadership skills that enable them to successfully transition to senior leadership positions in their agencies.

Pictured is the 44th Class of the National Jail Leadership Command Academy, faculty, and staff.
