Wellness Education

Available programs

Our mission around promoting wellness is to make sure that our clients feel confident, safe and supported while navigating their sexual and emotional health. While our primary focus is on educating prevention practices for individuals living with HIV, substance use disorder and those who engage in high-risk activities, we also teach crucial tools that can help our community build healthy communication, reduce stress and lead more fulfilling lives.

Outreach Education

Our outreach opportunities allow members of our Prevention Education department to go directly out into the community to provide hands-on education. As we work to defeat the stigmas around prevention, our Outreach Team provides vital information about healthy choices, the impact of substance misuse and how to keep yourself and others protected.
