2025 Annual Perinatal HIV Roundtable

Join us for a robust Ending the HIV Epidemic (EHE) conversation on: Destigmatizing Parenting and Pregnancy for People Living with HIV cosponsored by The Well Project, Center for HIV Law and Policy, and National Clinician Consultation Center.

The stigma of being pregnant or parenting while living with HIV may result in individuals avoiding care and support from healthcare providers due to fear of or experience with child welfare reporting. This introduces delays in the delivery of timely HIV prevention, diagnosis, and treatment services and interventions.

The 2025 Perinatal Roundtable will feature a discussion on how families affected by HIV are impacted by the child welfare system. Through expert-led discussions, real-world case analyses, and interactive breakout sessions, participants will gain insights into alternative approaches and practices that prioritize family unity and care coordination. This event is designed for health practitioners, social workers, and professionals who work with families affected by HIV and are interested in child welfare.
