Third National Housing and HIV/AIDS Research Summit -- March 5-7, 2008

Examining the Evidence: The Impact of Housing on HIV Prevention and Care

The National AIDS Housing Coalition (NAHC), working in collaboration with the Department of Health, Behavior and Society of the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health, is pleased to announce the third National Housing and HIV/AIDS Research Summit, a meeting of leading health, housing and social service researchers and policy-makers, to be held March 5–7, 2008, at the Pier 5 Hotel in Baltimore, Maryland.  The Housing and HIV/AIDS Research Summit series is an interdisciplinary, interactive forum for the presentation of research findings on the relationship of housing status and HIV prevention and care, coupled with dialogue on public policy implications and strategies among researchers, policy-makers, and providers and consumers of HIV housing and services. 

This is a time of explosive growth in the literature on housing and health, and the theme of Summit III is Examining the Evidence: The Impact of Housing on HIV Prevention and Care. NAHC invites abstracts presenting the results of scientific research, program evaluation, community-based interventions, and public policy strategies that reflect this theme.
