White House National HIV/AIDS Community Discussions and “Call to Action”
Community input will influence the new National HIV/AIDS Strategy
The White House Office of National AIDS Policy (ONAP) is conducting local community discussions to offer the public a chance to provide input as the White House works to fulfill President Obama’s pledge to develop a National HIV/AIDS Strategy (NHAS). The President believes that we must re-focus national attention on the domestic epidemic. He has articulated three goals for the NHAS: reducing HIV incidence, increasing access to care and optimizing health outcomes, and reducing HIV-related health disparities.
To participate in a community discussion, plan on attending the San Francisco meeting on October 16 from 6pm to 8pm at UCSF Mission Bay Conference Center, 1675 Owens Street, San Francisco, 94143 (866) 431-8273 http://www.ahl-missionbay.com/index.cfm
