A teleconference is scheduled to take place in sites across the U.S. determined to have high numbers of people living with AIDS or large communities of Latinos in high risk categories for AIDS. The conference will take place on 27 October. Objectives are: 1. to inform Hispanic/Chicano/Latino leaders in selected project sites about recent AIDS data and culturally relevant strategies to enable them to assume an active role in the AIDS crisis in their communities; 2. to provide examples of AIDS interervention to Hispanic/ Chicano/Latino community leaders that can be implemented and interaction with people knowledgeable about the AIDS issues of these communities. Southwestern sites include Phoenix, Albuquerque, Las Cruces, El Paso, San Antonio, Houston, Corpus Christi, and Austin. AIDS Resources of Dona Ana County is making arrangements to carry the conference at New Mexico State University. Details will be posted as they are received.
