Abstract The HIV epidemic has reached alarming rates in the United States especially within Black communities and is on par with those found in several African countries. HIV directly or indirectly related to men having sex with men is the single largest contributor to HIV infection among Blacks, accounting for nearly half of all cases among Black men. Despite large racial/ethnic disparities in HIV prevalence and risk, just one tested intervention specifically for Black men who have sex with men (MSM) has been published. Furthermore, Black men who have sex with both men and women (MSMW) have been particularly underserved and underrepresented in HIV research. Attention must be lent to address the behavioral, psychological, socio-cultural, and biomedical factors, as well as the racial/ethnic disparities that exist and contribute to HIV infection and transmission among Black MSM and MSMW. This 5-year R13 conference grant proposal entitled, Health, Hope and Healing (H3): A National Conference on HIV among Black MSM and MSMW, will assemble the best minds currently studying HIV/AIDS among Black MSM and MSMW. The H3 conference series, with an annual meeting over five years, aims to advance HIV biobehavioral research, mentor junior investigators, and foster community based participatory collaborations. The three measurable conference outcomes are to: 1) Produce an executive report detailing the long term research, training and policy agenda, highlighting recommendations designed to reduce HIV in Black MSM and MSMW; 2) Produce an executive report detailing successful mentorship of junior investigators; and 3) Develop successful community based participatory research collaboratives, as measured by the submission of at least one joint proposal that operationalizes the research. The H3 Conference series will be among the first to discuss the needs of Black MSM and MSMW within a holistic and socio-cultural paradigm and disseminate research findings and healthcare and policy recommendations for eliminating HIV/AIDS within this population.

抽象的 艾滋病毒的流行在美国尤其是黑人社区中达到了令人震惊的率，并且与在几个非洲国家发现的人相提并论。与男性与男性发生性关系的直接或间接相关的艾滋病毒是黑人感染艾滋病毒感染的最大贡献者，占黑人男性中所有病例的几乎一半。尽管艾滋病毒患病率和风险中的种族/族裔差异很大，但仅针对与男性发生性关系的黑人（MSM）进行了一项测试干预措施。此外，在艾滋病毒研究中，与男人和女人发生性关系的黑人（MSMW）尤为乏味和人数不足。必须注意解决行为，心理，社会文化和生物医学因素，以及存在的种族/族裔差异，并导致黑人MSM和MSMW之间的HIV感染和传播。这项为期5年的R13会议赠款提案，标题为“健康，希望与康复”（H3）：黑人MSM和MSMW中的全国艾滋病毒会议，将聚集目前在黑人MSM和MSMW中学习HIV/AIDS的最佳思想。 H3会议系列将在五年内举行年度会议，旨在推进艾滋病毒生物行为研究，导师初级调查人员和基于社区的参与式合作。三个可衡量的会议成果是：1）制作一份高管报告，详细介绍了长期研究，培训和政策议程，突出了旨在减少黑人MSM和MSMW中艾滋病毒的建议； 2）制作一份高管报告，详细介绍了初级调查人员的成功指导； 3）开发成功的基于社区的参与性研究合作，这是通过至少一项共同提案的提议来衡量的，该提案可以实施研究。 H3会议系列将是最早在整体和社会文化范式中讨论黑人MSM和MSMW的需求，并传播研究发现以及医疗保健以及政策建议，以消除该人群中的HIV/AIDS。
