The Intersections of HIV and Chronic Illness: Join us 4/30/26

Thurs April 30, 6-7:30pm ET on Zoom

News from our HIV Complexities Project: We’re excited to share that our senior fellow Gabriel San Emeterio and our founding director JD Davids will be featured at a special event hosted by our friends at The Reunion Project.

“Join The Reunion Project for a timely and deeply personal virtual webinar exploring the intersection of HIV and chronic illness, and the complex realities of navigating care, advocacy, and career while living with multiple health challenges.

Moderated by JD Davids, this conversation brings together powerful voices with lived experience: Ruth Fordham and Gregg Fordham, Susan Mulls, and Gabriel San Emeterio.

Panelists will discuss the layered challenges of managing HIV alongside other chronic conditions, including fragmented healthcare systems, stigma within medical settings, and the ongoing need to advocate for comprehensive, coordinated care. The conversation will also examine how these health realities intersect with professional life—addressing disclosure, workplace accommodations, burnout, and resilience.

Grounded in real-world experiences, this webinar offers both insight and practical strategies for self-advocacy, navigating medical systems, and sustaining meaningful careers while living with complex health needs. Whether you are living with HIV, supporting someone who is, or working in healthcare or advocacy, this discussion aims to inform, validate, and empower.”
