The conference took place October 21–22, 2026.

It was held at the Columbia Metropolitan Convention Center, 1101 Lincoln Street, Columbia, South Carolina.

The conference was designed for nurse practitioners, physician assistants, nurses, clinicians, educators, social workers, case managers, public health professionals, pharmacists, teachers, students, people living with HIV, and other service providers.

It was most useful for South Carolina nurses, nurse practitioners, case managers, social workers and public health staff who needed practical HIV, STD and hepatitis updates and continuing education, since the two days were billed as offering keynotes and concurrent sessions with up to 10 contact hours through Mid-Carolina AHEC.

Attendees at public health and clinical conferences usually wear business casual, with some in scrubs or agency polos straight from work. Convention center rooms often run cold, so a cardigan or light jacket was practical for Columbia in October.
