Winter Park, Fla. – July 10, 2026 – Thresa Giles, CEO of Hope and Help of Central Florida, Inc. (dba “Hope & Help”), will join the speaker lineup for the 2026 340B Coalition Summer Conference, an annual gathering focused on the 340B Drug Pricing program in the United States, July 13th-15th. Each year, the conference seeks to unite leaders in healthcare and nonprofits with policymakers to explore emerging healthcare trends, regulatory developments, and strategies to strengthen the 340B program.
Giles currently serves as the executive leader at Hope & Help, a nonprofit healthcare organization dedicated to addressing HIV and other STIs through prevention, comprehensive treatment, education, peer resources and testing.

Giles credits her extensive background in finance, contract administration, grant management, IT and investment strategy to her approach to leadership at Hope & Help. During her time as CEO, she has focused on expanding community partnerships, diversifying funding models and creating sustainable growth for the organization.
At this year’s conference, Giles will share insights into evolving 340B program dynamics and the critical role of financial stewardship, compliance and strategic growth in expanding access to care for underserved communities, particularly to expanding access to HIV and STI prevention and treatment. In her presentation, she will draw from decades of leadership in finance, procurement, regulatory compliance and operational strategy.
“Participating in the 340B Coalition Summer Conference is an opportunity to engage in meaningful dialogue about the future of equitable healthcare access,” said Giles. “I look forward to connecting with colleagues across the field and contributing to conversations that help strengthen and protect the 340B program.”
