Save the date for the National Minority AIDS Council’s (NMAC’s) December Stakeholder Call on Thursday, December 10th, 2009 at 1:00 p.m. EST/ 10:00 AM Pacific, featuring guest speaker Jeff Crowley the Director of National AIDS Policy at the White House http://www.whitehouse.gov/administration/eop/onap/staff/crowley. The call in number is 1-605-475-6333; code: 481162. You may e-mail your questions to info@nmac.org or send them through Twitter: http://twitter.com/NMACCommunity

Due to the large number of participants expected, the call will be a dialogue between Jeff and myself. We’ve asked Jeff to update us on the National AIDS Strategy.

From 2000-2009, Jeff was a Senior Research Scholar at Georgetown University’s Health Policy Institute and a Senior Scholar at the University’s O’Neill Institute for National and Global Health Law. His primary areas of focus involved Medicaid and Medicare policy issues as they impact people with disabilities and chronic conditions, including people with HIV/AIDS. Prior to this, he served as the Deputy Executive Director for Programs at the National Association of People with AIDS (NAPWA), overseeing the organization’s public education, community development, and training activities. He is a returned Peace Corps Volunteer, having served in Swaziland from 1989-1991, and is a member of the National Academy for Social Insurance (NASI).

Mr. Crowley holds a Master of Public Health (M.P.H.) degree from the Johns Hopkins University School of Hygiene and Public Health and a Bachelor of Arts degree from Kalamazoo College.

The call will be limited to the first 200 participants. I am so sorry that we ran out of space last time. The call will be recorded and podcast on NMAC’s web site at a later date.
