There used to be a group at ACS that talked about going back to work with HIV. Does it still meet?

John Carocci said...

Yes, ACS had a program which helped HIV+ people enter - or re-enter - the work place. I'll get the details and post them here on the blog some time this week. If you feel comfortable leaving an email address I'll notify you when the post goes up.

The rest of your post raises a lot of interesting points. Life with HIV is drastically different than it was 20, 10 or even 5 years ago. How are other people dealing with these kinds of issues?

Thank you for leaving comments. I
am in the jamestown area and as of now there is no support groups for us.
I am told that being HIV in western NY is still a taboo so people are still in the closet.
I have to say that I am very decrete as well, There are still many people that can be very mean and unkind in this area.
So iam glad that this blog has come along . Maybe we can communicate decretly here.
