Community Participatory Advisory Board

The Community Participatory Advisory Board (CPAB) is comprised of local stakeholders from a cross-section of community-based organizations, advocates, academic institutions, public health institutions in addition to state and local health department representatives. Its mission is to provide community input to the CFAR Baltimore HIV Collaboratory’s agenda and initiatives. Recommendations and concerns raised by the CPAB are shared with the CFAR’s external Scientific Advisory Board convened by the Administration Core. CPAB members have strong ties and most importantly work directly in the community. The CPAB meets monthly to discuss pending issues.
