Join the GMOC Fellows Tuesday, Sept. 27, 3:00 PM ET for this webinar on the intersections between HIV and MPV. Peer health education has been a cornerstone in HIV prevention and treatment for the last 40 years, especially for gay men of color. Today, activists, providers, and peer health educators are also confronting the current MPV outbreak, especially given data that shows new cases are affecting people of color most heavily. How can the lessons learned from the HIV movement be integrated into a successful, equitable MPV response? Panelists will discuss these and other topics and shed light on the role that peer educators have in properly responding to HIV and MPV. Register: https://bit.ly/GMOC_Webinar

Hello, I registered, and from speaking to colleagues, I should have gotten an email. It may have gone to my spam and I deleted it.

How can I find out if I am registered?
There are a lot of questions for NMAC, a lot of questions for USCA, and a lot of questions for Paul A. Kawata. Estamos juntos, we 're all in this together. I'm not sure NMAC, USCA, and Paul understand what this means. I keep asking for a conversation after Paul accused me of bullying him because I reminded him of promises he made to us. HIV LONG TERM SURVIVORS and people aging with HIV.
Can someone tell me what NMAC stands for? Oddly, I can't find it here or even on the website.
I'm looking for that livestream of Anthony Fauci talking about the End the HIV Epidemic. Is it on now? Can you post the link so I can share it with my co-workers?
NMAC It seem as if the who's who if the advocacy community are the only one ever selected to receive a scholarship. Most of those people who receive the scholarship are able to attend USCA and other conferences through sponsorships by affiliated organization. Those who need the scholarships are those who have the most to receive and learn from conferences such as these. Those people like myself who can contribute more than just a publicity and a dollar sign. Those who can /offer fresh and new insight. I have been advocating since 2015 and I have yet to have the chance to experience the camaraderie and sense of belonging in a space such as USCA. You say it's a lottery selection but that lottery seems to award the same people every year. Why?
PRIDE MONTH!! YES, recognizing the first generations growing older with HIV. LOVE FROM THE HIV LONG TERM SURVIVORS group and me.
Suggest spelling out the acronym at least once on your various sites! Took me a long time to find the answer. "National Minority AIDS Council" Not on website, FB or Twitter. - Just a suggestion.
