The goal of this one-day workshop is to determine models of providing HIV Point-of-Care-Testing (POCT) in rural and non-urban communities throughout Atlantic Canada. The workshop is open to community partners, service providers, policy makers, people living with HIV and affected by HIV and health researchers.

Their travel budget is limited, so please respond as soon as possible if you would like travel support (by Sunday June 7th at the latest). We are only able to reimburse travel costs for people who are traveling to Halifax from within the Atlantic Region (Nova Scotia, Newfoundland & Labrador, New Brunswick, and PEI).
