Join us for our next #CC16 Change Chat on Thursday, Dec. 10 from 6 – 8 p.m. as we discuss barriers to #HIV prevention and care for the LGBTQ community. This event is sponsored by Creating Change Conference, AIDS Foundation of Chicago, IMPACT LGBT Health and Development Program and Third Coast Center for AIDS Research.
What stands between YOU and accessing HIV Care & Prevention? Stigma, discrimination, disclosure, shaming, racial and gender inequity, stable housing, lack of medically-accurate information, misinformation, state and federal funding, access to affordable health insurance, lack of culturally-competent health care providers… Queer communities face very real challenges to gaining much needed information and interventions that can help prevent HIV infection as well as access to care for those who become HIV+. This chat is a chance for dialogue exploring why these barriers exist and how we can work together to change the systems that keep them in place.
Change Chats are a facilitated discussion series created to engage advocates and community members in informal conversations on issues of importance to the Chicago LGBTQ community.
