HIV Prevention in 2024: Responding to a Changing Landscape

Given ongoing political pressures to the provision of gender-affirming care and harm reduction services, we’re ready to discuss barriers, facilitators, and catalysts in infectious disease prevention and the creative solutions we need to support our clients and communities. How will we respond to existing PrEP inequities and disproportionate burdens of HIV on marginalized populations? How do we navigate the landscape of defunding and regulatory threats to delivery of evidence-based care?

Join us for a half-day symposium to close out PrEP Week! This event will include two didactic sessions and one panel on topics including: stigma and language in infectious disease prevention, PrEP delivery models to translate ‘awareness’ into uptake, chemsex harm reduction, funding and regulatory limitations to safer use supplies distribution in Philadelphia, ongoing anti-transgender legislation and violence, and potential future tools for prevention such as new injectable PrEP medications.

This activity has been planned and implemented in accordance with the accreditation requirements and policies of the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (ACCME) through the joint providership of the Pennsylvania Medical Society (PAMED) and Philadelphia FIGHT. PAMED is accredited by the ACCME to provide continuing medical education for physicians.

PAMED designates this live activity for a maximum of 3 AMA PRA Category 1 Credit(s)™. Physicians should only claim credit commensurate with the extent of their participation in the activity.
