Hey Luis and Brooke!
Thank you for your replies, is there any information you can provide, to connect with these groups, I know I struggle to locate and understand how I can apply to help myself. Specific contacts, websites, or instructions?

Brooke, you seem to be a very busy person in the community, can you tell us, how did you find yourself connecting with so many ways to give back?

Maybe look into your local Ryan White Planning Council, I'm an HIV Peer Educator in a hospital ID Clinic, I'm also an HIV blogger for HIV.NET, an active member of an HIV Caucus Committee. I am on a CAG Community Action Group with The American Academy of HIV Medicine. I am the Missouri Co-Chair of Positive Women's Network as well as a Zoom Administrator for Pillow Talk (An HIV Zoom weekly support group). There are tons of places to get involved, educate and give back to the positive community.

The AIDS foundations in every city and state across the country usually post positions on their various boards for people with HIV to apply. It does require time and effort though. There's boards such as the community advisory boards better known as CAB.... call your local AIDS foundation for more information. 👍🌈👋♥️

I am a focal point for REDCA+ in Nicaragua, I also lead a support group called "New Life" I generally like to give emotional support, provide hospital accompaniment and home visits, I do it voluntarily so the expenses of my visits are covered by myself in our support groups we collaborate each one here we practice a lot of solidarity among ourselves, you know I bring cookies, another the juices the important thing is to share and encourage each other here many organizations have closed organizations that previously supported us with food, donations, etc. but we continue forward, there is no greater reward than helping others 🫶

Soy punto focal de REDCA+ en Nicaragua, también lideró un grupo de apoyo llamado "vida nueva" por lo general me gusta dar apoyo emocional brindar acompañamiento hospitalario y visitas domiciliarias lo hago de forma voluntaria así que los gastos en mis visitas son cubiertos por mi misma en nuestro grupos de apoyo colaboramos cada uno aquí practicamos mucho la solidaridad entre nosotros mismos ya saben yo traigo galletas, otro los jugos lo importante es compartir y darnos ánimos unos a otros aquí muchas organizaciones han cerrado organizaciones que antes nos apoyaban con víveres, donaciones etcétera pero nosotros seguimos adelante, no hay mayor recompensa que ayudar a otros 🫶
