Description:"The National Center for HIV/AIDS, Viral Hepatitis, STD, and TB Prevention (NCHHSTP) has established three programmatic priorities based on shared leadership values across the Center's five Divisions: maximizing global synergies, encouraging program collaboration and service integration, and reducing health disparities. Since the establishment of the original national center for HIV, STD and TB Prevention (NCHSTP), reducing health disparities has been a focus of the Center's work and a commitment of its leadership. The Center understands the need to develop a comprehensive approach to addressing health disparities, one that takes into account not only individual level factors, but importantly, structural, contextual, socioeconomic status (SES), healthcare service access and quality, and environmental factors. Together these factors are called social determinants of health (SDH). NCHHSTP convened the external consultation to identify key short- and long-term priorities for addressing social determinants of HIV/AIDS, viral hepatitis, sexually transmitted diseases (STDs), and tuberculosis (TB) that are appropriate for NCHHSTP to undertake. The Consultation offered an opportunity for leading academic, scientific, public health and community stakeholders to discuss the development of more effective ways to address social determinants of HIV/ AIDS, viral hepatitis, STDs and TB in four key public health activity areas: 1. Public health policy; 2.Data systems (including surveillance and epidemiology), 3.Agency partnerships and building capacity for prevention, and 4.Prevention research and evaluation. The NCHHSTP Director presented the strategic priorities and focus areas of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the Coordinating Center for Infectious Diseases (CCID) and NCHHSTP and their respective roles in the SDH effort. The NCHHSTP Deputy Director presented a comprehensive overview of the three SDH models that were considered for NCHHSTP's prevention programs and activities. Representatives of NCHHSTP divisions presented case studies of ongoing projects in HIV/AIDS, viral hepatitis, STDs, TB, and global health framed within the context of one of the three models and provided rationale for selecting a particular SDH model." -- p. vii
