Join Us at Post-AIDS 2012 Community Updates in Birmingham and Chicago

The Black Treatment Advocates Network will conduct a series of two-day post-conference hubs in Black communities with high HIV burdens, nationwide. Combining video-taped sessions from AIDS 2012 with live speakers, presentations, capacity-building activities and discussions, the hubs will advance the local HIV/AIDS response, disseminate the science shared at AIDS 2012 and showcase emerging community leaders in local communities.
