National Minority AIDS Council Building Healthier Communities

Dear Colleague:

 

We hope that you will join us for the 2008 HIV Prevention Leadership Summit (HPLS) set for June 11-14, 2008 in Detroit, MI at the Detroit Marriott Hotel at Renaissance Center. The theme of this year’s meeting is Effective HIV Prevention: Understanding Racial and Ethnic Health Disparities in America and will offer participants a forum for information exchange, skills building, sharing lessons learned and networking.

 

The goal of the meeting is to bring together leaders in HIV prevention to disseminate and exchange information to enhance program planning and management. HPLS sessions will address the prevention needs of people living with HIV/AIDS, counseling and testing (including rapid testing), and creating effective linkages between prevention and care.

 

This year’s summit will be very special. The 2008 HPLS Steering Committee has scheduled numerous institutes, workshops, roundtables and poster sessions addressing various topics around HIV prevention.

 

Please take a few moments to browse the HPLS website at www.2008hpls.org to find additional details about the conference and check back often -- new information will be added as it becomes available.

 

We look forward to seeing you in Detroit.

 

Sincerely,
