Social Health

It gets better when we make it better. At HIM, we have a pretty simple idea: gay men with high self-esteem tend to live healthier lives and have access to better health choices. We're interested in improving social health factors that impact gay men, including the big-picture stuff like homophobia and heterosexism. We also have listings for our Professional Volunteers who specialize in social health.

Men on Men: Born This Way

Posted by HIM on Tuesday January 3rd, 2012

Beginning on Tuesday, January 10th, the Men on Men Relationship Discussion Group will evolve into the new Men on Men: Born This Way Discussion Group.

The group will come together each week to explore the joys and complexities of not identifying as heterosexual in a culture largely designed by and for straight guys. The workshops will be facilitated and themed for weekly skills-building and lively interaction (a schedule of the topics is available here).

The group is open to all men who love and/or have sex with men. We welcome positive, negative and unknown HIV status guys, men of all ages and ethnic identities, gay, bisexual, queer, trans, two-spirit guys and all men who love men.

DATE: Tuesday, drop-in

TIME: 6:30 pm - 8 pm

LOCATION: The Roundhouse181 Roundhouse Mews at Pacific Blvd - the Yaletown end of Davie St.(check at reception for which room we're in).

This is a collaborative group from HIM and QMUNITY. Scheduled topics will be available early January. To register, email register@checkhimout.ca or education@qmunity.ca or call HIM at (604) 488-1001 or QMUNITY at (604) 684-5307 ext.112.
