Latest Past Sessions
The San Francisco Principles 2020: Centering Long-Term HIV Survivors in Research, Care, and Advocacy
Studio FThe San Francisco Principles 2020 builds on the 1983 Denver Principles to highlight the critical needs of long-term HIV/AIDS survivors (LTS) as they age with HIV. This important statement brings attention to the linked problems of aging, unfair health access, and how systems often ignore marginalized people within the LTS community.
Unhoused and Unheard: Addressing Structural Racism and STI Risk in Queer Youth Care
This presentation examines how housing precarity and systemic bias shape clinical encounters with queer adolescents of color. Drawing from direct clinical practice, supervision, and education within urban community settings, it highlights the ways traditional care models often replicate inequities through rigid policies, pathologizing language, and a lack of intersectional awareness.
