Phoenix Workshop for Gay, Bi and Trans Men

Phoenix is a confidential and supportive space to learn how to live well with HIV.

Our next workshop is in on Friday, August 23, 7-9pm (6:30 for pizza) and Saturday 24, 9am-6pm.

You may have been recently diagnosed or perhaps you’ve had HIV for a while. It’s not so much about how long you’ve been living with HIV but more about how much support and information you want.

The Phoenix workshop is run by people living with HIV, and will also feature conversations with a HIV specialist doctor and HIV counsellor.

It’s free and no Medicare card is needed.

What can you expect from the workshop?

• Have your questions answered by a specialist HIV doctor (including information on the latest HIV treatment options) and a HIV counsellor (living well with HIV)
• Explore issues like sex, relationships, and deciding when (and when not) to tell people about your HIV
• Meet other people with HIV, and hear about other people’s HIV journey
• Learn about other HIV support and services
• Discover new ways to live well with HIV
