This is the third event in a four-part community networking series for Ending the HIV Epidemic (EHE) in Maryland. This event was created for providers and consumers of Maryland and the surrounding areas but is open to anyone interested in attending.

At the end of each event, participants will have the opportunity to win a prize!

The goal of 3-PEAT is to provide a platform for providers and consumers to share much needed resources and information on essential services and programs that will aid in Maryland’s effort to end the HIV epidemic by 2030. This event is brought to you by the Black Treatment Advocates Network (BTAN) Maryland, University of Maryland Dental PLUS, the University of Maryland School of Medicine Institute of Human Virology, and the MidAtlantic AIDS Education and Training Center (MidAtlantic AETC).
