Sponsored by AFC and MATEC, Positive Change II – Dismantling Racism in the HIV Workplace” is a FREE conference held over the course of two half-days, Thursday, October 29 and Friday, October 30.
Distinguished speakers include Drs. Camara Phyllis Jones, Tonia Poteat, Sheldon Fields and Russell Brewer.
The purpose of “Positive Change II – Dismantling Racism in the HIV Workplace” is to both inform the HIV workforce and to reflect and strategize on the roles that leaders, communities and our organizations play in perpetuating structural racism and white supremacy. With grounding in an understanding of up-to-the-minute history, and the lived context of diverse populations heavily impacted by HIV such as Black and Brown transwomen, gay men, and justice-involved populations, participants will gain insights into building and sustaining a culture of Race Equity. We can’t get to zero and end the HIV epidemic without Race Equity, and we hope you will join us in our collective quest to deepen our understanding, strengthen our resolve, and embolden our actions.
FREE continuing education units are available.
