HIV and HCV Advocacy Workshop
May 30 @ 4:00 pm–5:30 pm EDT
- Leveraging HIV and HCV Advocacy Opportunities to End the Epidemics
The recently released White House Plan for HCV Elimination presents an opportunity for the federal government to leverage the intersection between HCV and HIV to address HIV/HCV coinfection among communities impacted by both epidemics, such as people who use drugs, BIPOC communities, LGBTQ+ and young people. It also has the potential to ensure that strategies to address unique needs around HIV/HCV co-infection are elevated. Strong partnerships among HIV and HCV advocates are needed to urge the federal government to seize this opportunity. This interactive workshop will provide a platform for engagement among advocates to start the process of identifying non-duplicative strategies.
