VCPEA 30th Annual Conference Sponsorship Opportunities

We invite you to become a sponsor for the 30th Annual VCPEA conference, to be held May 6-8, 2026, at the Wyndham Oceanfront, Virginia Beach. The 2026 theme is “Celebrating Elders and Those Who Serve Them.”

Your sponsorship/exhibit support allows us to:

  • Feature nationally known speakers for our 250+ conference attendees,

  • Provide scholarships to those who would otherwise not be able to attend, and

  • Cover audiovisual and event costs.

This highly rated annual event − Virginia’s only conference that focuses solely on the prevention of elder abuse ─ draws individuals from multiple professions, including adult protective services (APS) staff, area agencies on aging, attorneys, domestic violence and sexual assault program staff, fire and rescue services personnel, law enforcement, long-term care ombudsmen, long-term care providers, medical professionals, mental health professionals, social workers, victim witness advocates, and other interested persons. Sponsorships enable us to deliver important educational content and interprofessional networking opportunities.

As a non-profit, all-volunteer coalition of individuals and organizations working collaboratively through education to assure older Virginians a life free of abuse, neglect, and exploitation, VCPEA, Inc. is truly grateful for the sponsorship support of organizations like yours. We invite you to complete the Sponsorship/Exhibitor Application Form.
