This program, which occurs on the International Day of Persons with Disabilities, will address the relationship between HIV, sexual health, and some of the demographic overlap in populations. We will also discuss stigma faced in each of these populations, and how to combat some of these barriers. Speaker will cover how to make sexual health information and medical content digestible for all patients while understanding that behaviors that put an individual at risk for HIV are not limited to persons without disabilities.
Learning Objectives
By the end of this program, participants will be able to:
- Discuss methods for improving the accessibility of sexual health information and medical content for patients of all backgrounds.
- Identify the relationship between HIV, sexual health, and demographic overlap in populations.
