2026 ILEAS Conference Wrap-Up

A big thank you to everyone who attended the 20th Annual ILEAS Conference on March 29-31 in Springfield! 265 people were in attendance, representing over 150 agencies across the State.

Feedback on the new single track format was very positive! Featured “after action” presentations included the 2023 Nashville Covenant School shooting and the 2017 Las Vegas mass shooting at Mandalay Bay. The conference highlight was undoubtedly our banquet speaker, former Chicago Bears defensive lineman Dan Hampton!

Attendance records will be submitted to ILETSB – please check their database to access your awarded mandate hours.

Autism 101 Free Less Lethal Alternatives Training being offered across the state.

Autism and the Law Enforcement Response equips law enforcement professionals with a foundational understanding of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). Participants learn how individuals with autism may behave, communicate, and respond in a variety of situations. The course addresses high-risk and crisis incidents and provides practical strategies to safely defuse and de-escalate encounters, along with effective approaches for interviewing victims, witnesses, and suspects who have autism.

This 2026 complimentary training is made possible by the Less Lethal Alternatives for Law Enforcement grant awarded to ILEAS by the ICJIA.
