HIV/AIDS & Confidentiality -
A Review of Privacy Rights and Remedies
- TOMORROW - Tuesday, October 10, 5:30pm - 7:00pm
- Bar Association of San Francisco - 301 Battery Street, 3rd Floor, Board Room, San Francisco, CA 94111
- Overview: HIV+ clients often find that the privacy of their status is regularly overlooked by healthcare workers, social workers, and others who inadvertently disclose their HIV/AIDS status. This disclosure is often emotionally devastating and financially disastrous. Fortunately, California courts have long recognized the right to privacy for those living with HIV/AIDS. This training will discuss the common law and statutory law protections that safeguard confidentiality. It will also analyze various violations of this right and the remedies for these violations.
This is a free training open to all attorneys, paralegals, law students, and those interested in the legal field. Please see below for admittance details. We hope to see you there!
