"Empower, Unite, And Join The Fight" is the theme of the four-day Pos Hetero Summit 2001, a conference to be held from Thursday, March 1 through Sunday, March 4 at the Hanalei Hotel in San Diego.

The Pos Hetero Summit, sponsored by Heterochat and the National Association of People With AIDS (NAPWA), is the largest gathering of HIV-positive heterosexuals in the world. The conference includes nightly socials, educational sessions, and a special Saturday evening event. Two daily meals and babysitting are provided.

Admission to the conference is free. Participants are encouraged to make a $20 donation.
