Federal Training Centers Collaboration

Overview

This is an initiative of federal training centers with overlapping or related missions. Five biennial, national meetings have been held (2002, 2004, 2006, 2008, and 2010) with the goals of 1) increasing training collaboration of overlapping focus areas of STD/HIV prevention and treatment, family planning/reproductive health, and substance use prevention and 2) maximizing the use of training resources. Between meetings, groups hold regular planning calls to continue the collaborative work and information sharing.
