Medical service for the underserved population
(with English-Japanese translation)
People who have multiple problems are often underserved in our society. Our speaker for the program is Dr.Barry Zevin who is a medical doctor who has specialized in serving people living with HIV with multiple problems. These challenges include homelessness, substance abuse, sexual minority status.
We would like this meeting to be interactive. People from organizations and individuals supporting different groups of people such as people living with HIV, homeless and sexual minorities will be there to share their experiences. We hope it will be an opportunity to learn from each other beyond our national and cultural differences.
