BEYOND AIDS ANNOUNCES 12/06 NEW YORK MEETING
Beyond AIDS will hold its Annual Meeting on Saturday, December 9, 2006 in Flushing, Queens, New York, New York.
Beyond AIDS has had a successful and eventful year. California and other states have converted at last from coded reporting of HIV to names, and CDC has released recommendations for routine testing. Beyond AIDS has an extraordinary opportunity to follow up on these successes to achieve lasting improvements in control of HIV transmission. We have been especially active in California and New York, and due to its location the meeting will feature New York projects in particular. The upcoming meeting will help to chart the course of the coming year.
The meeting will start at 10:00 a.m., and will include refreshments and a no-host lunch. Presentations of HIV/AIDS legislation, intern projects, and a grant proposal for HIV/AIDS awareness and testing promotion will be included in the morning session.
A portion of the afternoon will be open to conference call-ins by members who cannot attend in person. The afternoon will conclude with open Board meetings of Beyond AIDS and the Beyond AIDS Foundation from 2:30 to 4:00 p.m.
Attendance, both live and by conference call, will be by reservation. All interested persons should send an e-mail to the sender of this message or to beyondaids@aol.com, or leave a message at 888-BEY-AIDS (888-239-2437), with your name and contact information, and details on location or call-in access will be transmitted.
On Sunday, December 10, a small delegation of Beyond AIDS leaders will be traveling to Washington, DC for political and organizational contacts and to conduct further business through Monday, December 11. Anyone interested in participating in that activity should leave a message by the same means.
