HIV ECHO

The HIV ECHO program delivers virtual mentoring sessions around HIV screening, diagnosis, and treatment and aims to help reduce healthcare barriers for populations at risk.

The HIV ECHO program is free and open to all members of the healthcare providers including, physicians, pharmacists, advanced practice nurses, case managers, and social workers who will share cases, learn best practices, and consult with peers and expert faculty.

The HIV ECHO meets online on the second Thursday of the month from 8:30-10:00 a.m. ET and fourth Thursday of the month from 12:30-2:00 p.m. ET via Zoom.
