About Us

About Us 

The Southeast STD/HIV Prevention Training Center is a regional collaboration between a group of nationally respected experts in STD training and research. The center is comprised of faculty and staff from the University of Alabama at Birmingham, Wake Forest University, the Jefferson County (AL) Department of Health, and the Guilford County (NC) Department of Health. Utilizing faculty from each collaborating institution we provide experiential training at two state-of-the-art STD Clinics. 

Faculty and staff travel to locations throughout our 5-state region for further educational activities to improve STD/HIV care. The SE PTC partners with federally-qualified health centers; community health centers; state and local health departments in Alabama, Georgia, North and South Carolina, Florida; and local community health organizations to provide didactic education to clinicians who serve those at risk or infected with an STI.
