In part 1 of this eHIV Review Special Edition (still available at eHIVreview.org), eHIV Review Program Director Justin Alves, Nurse Educator at Boston Medical Center, reviewed the recent evidence describing some of the barriers to care experienced by marginalized individuals at risk for or living with HIV. In this Part 2 issue, he again calls upon two front-line clinicians in the fight to end the HIV epidemic in the U.S. — Nicky Mehtani, MD, from UCSF Medical Center in San Francisco, and Vanessa Loukas, NP, from Boston University’s Chobanian & Avedisian School of Medicine —to share their clinical approaches.

What do HCPs need to know to understand the unique needs of these underserved populations? How can they provide meaningful, helpful, and culturally sensitive care? What barriers continue to prevent their being brought into the HIV care continuum?
