DESCRIPTION:Women as Social Warriors IV: Prevenir y Protejer  Latinas and the HIV/AIDS 
 Epidemic  Thursday, February 2, 2006  College 9 & 10 Multipurpose Room  
 UCSC  6:00 PM-9:00 PM  Our 2006 convening and connected activities will 
 focus on HIV/AIDS prevention and awareness for a population often 
 overlooked and/or ignored in health policy—Latinas.  As most recently 
 addressed at the Chicago 5th Annual Binational Health Week Health Policy 
 Forum, there exists a growing prevalence of HIV/AIDS among women in highly 
 mobile migrant communities on both sides of the border. This challenges us 
 to bring a broad based coalition to the table, acknowledging that solutions 
 locally must respond to transnational factors.  The upcoming convening 
 features three of the most important leaders on health policy for Latinas. 
 Xóchitl Castañeda of the California-Mexico Health Initiative will offer a 
 perspective on the relationship between Mexican migration and HIV/AIDS 
 transmission for women on both sides of the border. Barbara Garcia, Deputy 
 Director of Health for San Francisco, will speak on health services and the 
 role of Latino/a-serving agencies, drawing on her previous work as Director 
 of Salud Para La Gente in the Pajaro Valley. Juanita Quintero, of UCSF will 
 offer a regional perspective on her work with Latina health in San 
 Francisco.  http://cjtc.ucsc.edu\n
