HOWARD BROWN HEALTH CENTER announce the next round of STEP ONE, our educational support group for people newly diagnosed with HIV.AIDS. This group is for anyone living with HIV/AIDS who has received their first diagnosis in the last 12 months.
Our focus is on providing a safe space for folks to learn and talk about living with HIV/AIDS. We will provide an opportunity to share personal stories and build relationships within the group, provide guest experts in treatment and nutrition, offer information about and discuss stress and mental health, self-esteem and dating and disclosure. In doing these groups we have found that people are looking to find spaces where they can talk to other people with similar experiences and receive social support. Throughout the group process we will focus on this aspect of the group in order to foster these relationships.
To make any referrals please contact me using the information below or have the potential group member contact me directly.
