A health coach is a type of healthcare extender trained to help others set goals and be accountable for themselves as they begin a journey to improve their overall health and quality of life.

2021 NC Annual STD Update is being held on March 31, 2021 and will be live via Webex ONLY.
To keep all safe, we have decided to host the 2021 NC Annual STD Update as a fully virtual program with no group remote viewing site options.
The 2021 Update will provide up-to-date information on prevention, management and treatment of sexually transmitted infections (STIs). The program will also include a panel discussion with case studies that will review common disease states that may complicate treatment, explore emerging infections, and discuss the future of testing technique implementation.
