Integrating care for drug use and HCV infection among people who inject drugs

Please consider becoming an INHSU member. INHSU is a relatively young organisation which is expanding at a critical and exciting point in time for the management of hepatitis C, particularly for people do or have injected drugs.

INHSU membership costs €50 per annum and will make you part of the treating community; a researcher, a community member, a person living with hepatitis C, an activist or policy maker, part of the vanguard in responding to hepatitis C. But INHSU is not just a passive responder, it is a vibrant organisation which explores new ideas and issues and provide a space for people to discuss new ideas and form new collaborations. We are not though an island and we collaborate with many others in the viral hepatitis area, clinical educators, people working in HIV and/or co-infection, addiction and drug and alcohol areas.

We have an interest in the most vulnerable including indigenous peoples, people who are incarcerated, who have mental health issues and who may be homeless or stateless.

Members can vote in the annual election of the Executive Board and play a role in developing the vibrant and progressive organisation. Members will:

• Have access to the INHSU website, and be able to post jobs to the site at no charge

• Benefit from a member discount for any training
• Be able to contribute to policy and clinical guideline development
• Invited to contribute to the Annual Conference, through participating in committees or reviewing abstract
