Viral Hepatitis Summit
July 19, 2023 - July 21, 2023
$50.00
The Community Liver Alliance in collaboration with the National Viral Hepatitis Roundtable, MidSouth Liver Alliance, Hep B Foundation, National Harm Reduction Coalition, and Community Education Group, would like to invite you to our 3-day, in-person Viral Hepatitis Summit in Pittsburgh, PA on July 19-21, 2023.
The goal of the Summit is to bring together the broad viral hepatitis community to identify strategies and best practices to successfully reduce disease burden, affect health equity and expand viral hepatitis elimination. Through interactive sessions, we will address HAV, HBV, HCV, HDV, Vaccination, Elimination, Advocacy, Incarcerated Population, Special Populations, Perinatal and Pediatrics, Harm Reduction and other topics.
By understanding the disparities which exist for access to care and services for people living with viral hepatitis and identifying evidence-based approaches, we can begin to remove barriers to effect health equity. We will also provide training and education for service providers on screening and treating viral hepatitis, harm reduction strategies, and grassroots advocacy training.
