Host or Attend a Partner-Led Convening as Part of the White House Conference on Hunger, Nutrition, and Health
It will take all of us to end hunger and reduce diet-related diseases and the disparities surrounding them. That is why the White House wants to hear ideas and stories from all Americans who have experienced the impact of hunger, heart disease, or hypertension. Your ideas and experiences will help inform a national strategy that will be announced at the White House Conference on Hunger, Nutrition, and Health in September 2022.
We invite you to host your own convening and engage people who have experience with hunger and/or diet-related disease. The White House has created a toolkit available in English, Chinese, Korean, Spanish, and Vietnamese to help you plan your convening.
Deadline for comments and to submit a convening is July 15.

No matter your test results, there are options to help you and your partners be healthy. HIV self-testing is self-care. Take care of yourself by taking charge of your health!
