Rates of HIV and sexually transmitted infections especially, have been rising steadily in Charlottesville and the surrounding counties. The AIDS/HIV Services Group in Charlottesville is trying to do its part to help the Latino community be as informed as possible concerning these issues. Towards that end, the ASG will provide this workshop for service providers that work in the Latino community. At the end of the training participants will receive a certificate of completion and will be better able to help their clients understand HIV treatment and prevention.
Workshop facilitator Carlos Velázquez is Co-chair of the DC Metropolitan Latino Commission on HIV/AIDS. Carlos has been in the health communications and policy field for 18 years, providing technical assistance and capacity building services to a large network of Latino-serving agencies and health departments throughout the US and abroad.
