Bay Area Young Positives

BAY Positives is a great resource for young people (26 and under) with HIV/​AIDS. I completed my field placement here last summer and continue to stay in contact through a collaborative project.
This safe and sex-​positive space serves as a drop-​in day center. It also provides weekly support groups, prevention case management, referral services and social/​recreational events. (Think movie/​theater show nights. Last summer a couple of members were taken to see RENT. Every year members are taken on a Healing Waters rafting trip.) Online prevention is also available. Check the homepage and see if the resident sexpert is there. During business hours of course.
Staff members I know are Curtis (Executive Director) and Carley (Peer Educator). Really down-​to-​earth, homolicious staff who know the ins and outs of local non-​profits.
