Abstract	The current study explored the attitudes of criminal justice students enrolled at a Midwestern university in the United States toward conjugal visitation programs. The data were collected through an online survey questionnaire consisting of 10 closed-ended and two open-ended questions, capturing responses from 110 students enrolled in five criminal justice courses during the Spring 2020 semester. Analysis of the data shows that 74.6% of respondents supported conjugal visitation programs in general, while 18.2% opposed them. Regarding their home state's lack of conjugal visitation programming, 70% of participants expressed support for adopting such a program in the state, while 11.8% voiced opposition toward such a program. The results of this study closely align with extant research concerning justifications for and against conjugal visitation programs. (As Provided).
