We all know that HIV is now a manageable chronic illness and adhering to our medications and staying in care is the first step to a healthy and fulfilling future. But to truly thrive with HIV, we must also care for our social, emotional, financial, spiritual, and personal wellness. THRIVERS is a monthly discussion group for people impacted by HIV that relies on the personal expertise within our communities to help one another get the most out of life and to take advantage of the opportunities before us.

This month, we will talk about coping skills and the ways that we deal with stress or other challenges. We’ll look at the thoughts, behaviors, and emotions that we each experience when we encounter challenging situations. We will work to identify strategies for coping in healthy and effective ways.

Come thrive with us!
