Meeting Summary

Annual Family and HIV/AIDS Meeting

July 1, 2006
San Juan, Puerto Rico

NIMH and the University of Puerto Rico cosponsored the Annual International Research Conference on the Role of Families in Preventing and Adapting to HIV/AIDS. The conference theme was "Resilient Families Overcoming Poverty, Violence, Mental Illness and HIV/AIDS." The first day of this conference was a "Community Day," designed to engage service providers by conducting skills-building workshops to improve their delivery of evidence-based family prevention programs. The meeting included scientific presentations on the latest family-based research, which may lead to new research collaborations. For more information, please contact Dr. Willo Pequegnat.
