About:
The Love Unleashed HIV Workshop gives caring Christians real-world tools to make a difference in the fight to stop AIDS and care for those who suffer.
The workshop information and training is for all Christians who want to learn more and/or want to become involved in the fight agianst HIV/AIDS. It is a required component for volunteers interested in becoming a Care Provider through our Care Program.
The workshop is typically held on Saturdays from 9:00 until 5:00 at various churches. HIV Care Link offers four to six workshops a year. The cost per person is a $55 registration fee to cover materials and food ($60 at the door).

Workshop topics include:

•Debunking stigma and hysteria, understanding HIV/AIDS.

•It's okay to be uncomfortable; valuable tools for care-giving and grief work.

•Keeping your foot out of your mouth and competently sharing the love and hope of Christ with those who are different from you.

•There seems to be a lot mroe than just HIV going on here; let's have a frank discussion about sexuality and addiction issues.

•Make a difference; how you can take action.

"Broke my heart. I realized just how calloused I've become."
