The
White House LGBT Conference on HIV/AIDS is part of a series of
conferences that will be held around the country specifically focused on
LGBT
Americans. These White House LGBT Conferences will provide grassroots
leaders, community organizers, advocates, students, and interested
citizens an opportunity to hear directly from the administration
officials on our efforts on behalf of LGBT Americans.
The
conference will begin with a morning plenary followed by afternoon
workshops. The morning session will be open to pre-credentialed media,
and will include remarks by
Dr. Grant Colfax, Director of the White House Office of National AIDS
Policy and Dr. Kevin Fenton of the Centers for Disease Control, as well
as nationally recognized experts on HIV/AIDS including Dr. David Satcher
of Morehouse School of Medicine and Dr. David
Malebranche of Emory School of Medicine.
