This virtual update will examine intimate partner violence of persons living with HIV. According to the CDC, one in four adults with HIV in the United States experience intimate partner violence – which could be anything between physical assault to stalking. This training will discuss intimate partner violence and the unique needs of those impacted especially by gender and gender/sexual identity and how such violence impacts their lives. Speakers will be on hand to discuss this topic and provide a framework for providers to deliver effective HIV care and prevention services.
