The National Viral Hepatitis Roundtable (NVHR) will be hosting a hepatitis C (HCV) patient summit July 29 and 30, 2019. The summit, NVHR’s first national patient gathering, will bring together 100 patients cured of or currently living with HCV with an emphasis on those who have not had experience engaging in other advocacy programs. The Patient Summit will be a starting point for growing a grassroots movement to better address HCV in the US and centering the voices of patients in hepatitis elimination planning efforts.

To ensure the diversity of attendees includes the entire patient population of the HCV epidemic, the patient summit will prioritize recruitment of individuals from across the entire patient community, including disproportionately impacted and marginalized communities representing all states. In order to attend the Patient Summit, we ask that you have received a diagnosis of hep C (whether currently living with or not) at some point in your life. Please provide as much of the information below as you are comfortable with in your application to participate in the Patient Summit. This very personal information is being asked to ensure full inclusion of perspectives and voices in the Summit and will not be shared outside of the planning committee.

NVHR will support travel expenses for accepted applicants.

The deadline for submitting the application is the end of the day on Sunday, May 19. You can mail a hard copy of the application to the address below:
