World AIDS Day

December 1, 2024

On this World AIDS Day, the CAPTC remains dedicated to a future where HIV/AIDS is no longer a threat. We reaffirm our commitment to equipping healthcare professionals with the skills needed to interrupt the transmission of HIV through trainings on partner services, disclosure, motivational interviewing, and strengths-based approaches. Since the peak of the epidemic the collective work of the public health workforce has significantly reduced HIV and HIV-related deaths. We commend every partner in this effort and thank you for your invaluable contributions over the years.

Creating an environment where health equity exists for all.

Promoting Equity. Building Capacity. Prioritizing People.

OUR MISSION

To build the capacity of health care professionals working in HIV, STIs, sexual and reproductive health, and emerging public health needs to deliver high-quality, respectful, and inclusive services.

The CAPTC Difference

We believe in the power of human-to-human connection. For providers, we create learning environments in which they feel safe to learn, reflect, and explore themselves. In turn, these providers have a bigger tool belt so they can offer welcoming, inclusive spaces to their clients to receive care. We are more than trainers, we promote an ethic of compassion, empathy, humility, and inclusivity in healthcare.
