Correctional settings present a critical opportunity for public health intervention, especially given the high prevalence and co-infection rates of syphilis, HIV, and HCV among justice-involved populations. This webinar will explore the benefits of implementing rapid point-of-care testing in jails and other short-term facilities, including timely diagnosis, immediate linkage to care, and reduced disease transmission. Attendees will review the public health implications of missed testing opportunities and learn how POC testing supports both individual and community health. The session will also highlight practical strategies and available resources for launching rapid testing programs, as well as the importance of collaboration among correctional health care providers, facility staff, and community partners to ensure successful implementation and follow-up.

$0 fee – registration required. Registration includes access to the PPT slide presentation, webinar recording, and CE credit – 1.00 hour for ACCME, ANCC, APA, CCHP, and general certificates.
