This series will provide support and information to people that are newly-diagnosed: how to make health care more accessible, how to make your doctor-patient relationship better, and other issues related to sexual health and HIV.
Wednesday, August 7, 2013 from 6 to 9 p.m.
Saturday, August 10 from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m.
