Community Health Forums

Community Health Forums are free and a great way to learn about current trends affecting people living with HIV and AIDS and those at increased risk for HIV. 

ACT's Community Health Forums fall and winter series has returned. Held monthly from September through March, our forums feature expert presentations and panel discussions about health issues relevant to people living with HIV and to those at risk for HIV. 

You can also watch the forums you've missed on our Youtube channel.
