Here's a sample of what other guys have wanted to Tune-Up:
"Figure out a way to make sure I always have condoms and lube on me without looking like I'm trying to hard."
"Find new ways to talk about HIV status that don't ruin the mood or make me so anxious."
"Reduce my drinking or drug use to two or three times a week."
"Come up with better ways to talk to my long-term partner about rules for hooking up more safely outside our relationship."
"Find a few regular clients that I've been comfortable negotiating with so I don't have to hustle and turn tricks with as many guys to pay the rent."
"Figure out how to meet cool guys who aren't using outside of the bars or always on-line."

SUPPORT GROUP FOR HIV POSITIVE GAY AND BI MEN
New men are always welcome to CCA's group that meets the first and third Tuesday afternoons at 3pm. Discussion ideas and activities come from the group. Members can also benefit from CCA's case management and housing programs that may offer food vouchers, nutritional information, housing assistance and the peer support drop-in program. The group is a great and low-key way to connect with other fabulous men.
