30th Annual Conference

ANAC 2017: Celebrating 30 Years

November 2 - 4, 2017The Fairmont Dallas – Dallas, Texas


We hope you join us next year for ANAC 2018 in Denver

November 8 –10, 2018

Dear Colleague,

The ANAC2017 Conference Committee welcomes you to Dallas! This year’s conference marks a milestone in ANAC’s history as we celebrate 30 years. Just as the HIV epidemic has evolved, so has our organization. Initially founded with a small group of nurses looking to find support and education during a growing health crisis, ANAC is now the leading organization representing nurses from all parts of the globe who are committed to caring for persons living with, and affected by, HIV and its associated comorbidities.

This year’s conference features sessions focusing on a range of topics related to domestic and international HIV and viral hepatitis care, treatment, and prevention. Our conference sessions have been designed to pay tribute to our early beginnings, address current issues, and provide a vision of the future. This year, ANAC2017 is pleased to provide participants with the opportunity to learn about the latest and most pressing issues including the care continuum, global health, mental health, cardiovascular disease, viral hepatitis, the latest biomedical HIV prevention strategies, and health policy.

We are fortunate to have some of the leading experts in the field of nursing, medicine, policy, pharmacy, and education who will share their expertise. Our speakers will focus their presentations on our most highly-impacted communities, including African Americans, women, transgender persons, adolescents, and persons who use drugs.

We are also pleased to offer attendees the opportunity to participate in several pre-conference events: a workshop focusing on the use of mobile technology for HIV research; a review course for the ACRN certification exam; and workshop on implicit bias in health care. Through a generous grant from Walgreen’s, we are pleased to offer community-based learning opportunities where participants will have the chance to visit local organizations and learn about innovative models of care.

In addition, ANAC has organized a special pre-conference reception at the Bush Presidential Library where attendees will have an opportunity to visit the library and celebrate the contributions of President Bush’s establishment of PEPFAR, a program that has greatly impacted the health of millions of people living with HIV globally.

The Dallas Chapter has been working to create a fun and lively Gala as well as our annual celebration of life. While in Dallas, we hope you will spend time getting to know the area including the Dallas Arboretum and Botanical Gardens, the Sixth Floor Museum, the Nasher Sculpture Center, and Pioneer Plaza. Of course, we also hope you will enjoy some of the award-winning local restaurants and nightspots.

Many thanks go out to our colleagues on the national conference committee: Vincent Guilamo-Ramos, Mitchell Wharton, Lisa Lawrence, Ella Curry, LaRon Nelson and Victoria Langston. A special thank you to Erin Myers and Carole Treston at the National ANAC office without whose leadership none of this would be possible. Thank you to the ANAC Board of Directors who have been continually engaged and supportive of the committee. We would also like to thank the Dallas Chapter for serving as our host committee during conference. Finally, we are grateful to you, our participants. Enjoy ANAC2017!

AIDS Services of Dallas (ASD) ASD is an innovative, nationally recognized model of congregate housing and support services for low- income and homeless individuals and families living with HIV/AIDS. This unique program provides comprehensive case management, medical case management, transportation, food services, home health care and volunteer support to its residents. The range of services are designed to remove barriers to care and to empower the residents to cope with the cyclical impact of HIV/AIDS. This session will include a talk and stop at each of the four apartment complexes discussing the individual needs of the clients served at each building. The group will be taken to the “Penthouse” on top of one of the buildings to see the view of downtown Dallas then engage in a Q & A session with staff to discuss their roles and how they fulfill the supportive needs of their clients.

Prism Health North TexasInitially established in 1986 as AIDS Arms, Inc. and recently renamed Prism Health North Texas, this organization is the largest community-based AIDS service organization in North Texas providing coordinated and comprehensive HIV services. The mission of Prism Health North Texas is to combat HIV/AIDS in the community by improving the lives and health of individuals living with the disease and preventing its spread. Prism Health North Texas programs reach out to individuals at risk, identify those who are HIV+, link them to care, provide HIV medical treatment and psychosocial support and help reduce transmission risk. As part of this community experiential learning opportunity, participants will get an opportunity to visit the Prism Health North Texas location and learn more about their unique programs and services. Speakers from the program’s different service areas including research, the Home Again program (for homeless individuals), PrEP program, and the reentry program will discuss their unique programs’ services and approach to caring for persons living with HIV. Small tours of the clinic, in particular the research department will be provided. (25 attendees max)

Assessment and Treatment of Individuals with HIV/AIDS and co-morbid mental health concerns: Thirty years of experienceMental health resources are lacking for the community in general and even more so for individuals with HIV/AIDS. Mental health concerns for this population are extremely broad including persons with chronic mental health issues to individuals struggling to accept their diagnosis. Integrated care for individuals with HIV/AIDS is limited but provides positive results for patients. Psychopharmacological intervention and other treatment are often overlooked. Patients benefit from mental health intervention and increased access to care. However, knowledge on best practice is sometimes lacking or the resources are unavailable. This session will increase understanding of mental health concerns for individuals with HIV/AIDS, increase the ability to assess, diagnose and treat co-morbid mental health concerns in individuals with HIV/AIDS and increase comfort with prescribing psychotropic agents.

HIV-related stigma: Understanding the issue to interventionNurses understand that HIV-related stigma is a barrier to all aspects of the care continuum. However, they may not fully understand the types of HIV-related stigma that exist. Further, the intersection between HIV-related stigma and sexual risk taking, adherence, engagement in care and quality of life may not be fully appreciated Michael V. Relf

The Important Role of Safety Net Providers in Addressing Health Disparities in Reproductive Health CareA focus on the critical role safety net providers, like Planned Parenthood, play in increasing access to health care and addressing disparities in access to reproductive health care and HIV care. In order to understand these disparities in health care, the intersection of racism, sexism, classism, xenophobia, and other systemic barriers will be discussed. The plenary will also highlight the vital role that Planned Parenthood plays in the health care system and current threats that could potentially thwart progress to addressing barriers to care across the united States.

Project ECHO: Expanding Access to HIV and Hepatitis C CareWe are pleased to have Dr. Karla Thornton, Associate Director of the ECHO Institute, as our plenary speaker who will provide an overview of Project ECHO and its impact on expanding care for persons living with HIV, viral hepatitis, and other associated conditions.

Project ECHO (Extension for Community Healthcare Outcomes) is a collaborative model of medical education and care management that empowers clinicians everywhere to provide better care to more people, right where they live. Launched in 2003, Project ECHO has dramatically increased access to specialty treatment in rural and underserved areas by providing front-line clinicians with the knowledge and support they need to manage patients with complex conditions such as: hepatitis C, HIV and tuberculosis. This model has addressed disparities in access to care, rising costs, systemic inefficiencies, and unequal or slow diffusion of best practices. Across the united States and globally, policymakers have recognized the potential of ECHO to exponentially expand workforce capacity to treat more patients sooner, using existing resources.

Sexually Transmitted Infections Update and Interesting CasesRates of sexually transmitted infections (STIs) in the uS continue to increase. In 2015 over 2 million bacterial STIs were reported in the uS including a total of 395,216 cases of gonorrhea and 1,526,658 cases of chlamydia. While most providers are easily able to recognize typical symptoms of STIs such as urethral discharge, asymptomatic and atypical presentations many often go undiagnosed with potential for long term complications. uncommon STIs have limitations in diagnosis and are often based on clinical suspicion rather than reliance on diagnostic testing. Providers may not be up-to-date and current on CDC recommendations for screening and treatment in the face of emerging antibiotic resistance.
