All @ID_fellows and HIV providers should receive training in trauma-informed care. It is critical for effective and compassionate care of people with HIV. 
Many of our patients have experienced adverse childhood experiences, which have significant impact on future physical and mental health.
Women with HIV suffer disproportionately. 30% have PTSD, 55% have experienced recent IPV, 61% have experienced lifetime sexual abuse, and 72% have experienced lifetime physical abuse.
Don't ask: "What is wrong with the patient?"
Ask: "What has happened to the patient?"
Ask: "What has happened to the patient?"
The guiding principles for why we do the work that we do. Potentiality: the idea that there is hope, strength, and resilience in every one of our patients.
