More than 130 individuals from across the country will participate in the "White House Conference on HIV and AIDS," McCurry told a news briefing.
AIDS refers to Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome, and HIV, or, human immunodeficiency virus, is the virus that causes it.
"Conference participants will discuss the latest trends and the AIDS epidemic, epidemiological surveys, and studies of the AIDS epidemic itself and the central issues of AIDS research prevention, care, and discrimination among other issues," McCurry said.
Clinton will participate in "some portion" of the conference, McCurry said, adding that more details would be released later.
