The Minority AIDS Initiative-HBCU workgroup of the Mid-Atlantic AIDS Education and Training center will be bringing together senior leadership in student health services and student housing from HBCUs in the mid-atlantic region to engage in a dialogue about the rising incidence of HIV and STIs in the region and strategies to reduce the impact on their respective student populations.
