Individuals attending the HIV/AIDS Community Discussion will be given up to one minute to provide their National HIV/AIDS Strategy recommendations. In addition, participants will be given the opportunity to submit written recommendations before leaving the event, or alternatively, can forward their recommendations to AIDSpolicy@who.eop.gov.
President Obama has already identified three goals for the NHAS:
-- Reduce HIV incidence
-- Increase access to care and optimize health outcomes
-- Reduce HIV-related health disparities
The event will take place from 2 - 4 p.m. inside the Berkeley High School Auditorium, 1980 Allston Way (at Milvia Street), Berkeley, CA.
The venue is accessible by public transportation. Organizers hope to draw hundreds of concerned community members, including leaders from the faith and business communities.
