The Protocol Implementation Summit 4.0, hosted by the Washington DC Regional Planning Commission on Health and HIV (COHAH) in collaboration with the Mid-Atlantic AIDS Education Training Center (MAAETC) Howard University-Local Partner Site, is where stakeholders, service providers, policymakers, and community advocates converge to advance the continuum of HIV services in the Washington, DC Eligible Metropolitan Area (EMA). This year’s summit will explore collaborative and innovative opportunities for strengthening HIV retention, by leveraging scientific knowledge, epidemiological data and HIV Care needs.
Objectives
Enhance Collaboration: Close gaps across the HIV care continuum using epidemiological data to target outreach, PrEP retention, and retention in care among priority populations.
Share Stories: Increase community awareness of new and recently approved biomedical treatment and prevention interventions, including a look ahead at what's coming in the next year.
Innovative Approaches for Achieving Greater Health Outcomes for People with HIV: Strengthen HIV workforce science literacy through a proposed learning curriculum that helps providers translate biomedical advances into patient and community-facing communication — directly supporting CDC, HRSA, and WHO Ending the HIV Epidemic priorities.
Join us to help drive meaningful change and collectively advance EHE goals in the region; while spotlighting HIV Care and Prevention efforts for People with HIV.
