This Community of Practice (CoP) is for Delaware professionals working with populations affected by HIV. 

Objectives

  • Define the concept of a syndemic and explain how substance use disorders (SUDs) interact with HIV and STIs to worsen health outcomes.
  • Describe the public health relevance of syndemic interactions among populations experiencing overlapping substance use disorders and infectious diseases like HIV.  
  • Identify examples of syndemic solutions and care models, including how integrated clinical and service strategies bring together substance use disorder, infectious disease, and related health services to better address co-occurring challenges.
