This two-hour webinar will introduce providers to trauma and the impact on clients with HIV/STIs/Hep C. This course will review the definition of trauma and trauma informed care.

This two part (3 hours total - 2 sessions that are each 1.5 hours) training is for health and human service providers who work with people living with HIV and who need updated information about HIV/Hep C co-infection in order to provide effective services to their clients. More than 25% of people living with HIV in the United States are co-infected with Hep C. Among people who acquired HIV as a result of injection drug use, the rates of HIV/Hep C co-infection may be as high as 90%. Hep C screening is recommended for all persons living with HIV.
