NHAS Implementation Dialogues

In two earlier blog posts we outlined the topic and format for a series of regional dialogues that the White House Office of National AIDS Policy will convene to focus attention on issues related to implementation of the National HIV/AIDS Strategy.  These events will be a forum for Federal, state and local agency representatives, researchers, clinicians, the HIV community, and leaders from the business, foundation, faith and media sectors to share their diverse expertise, and collaborative experience.

The events are free, open to the public, anyone can attend.  To help us better plan each event we ask  that you  register in advance for each of the events that you are interested in attending.  You may register for as many events as you wish to attend.
