Health Initiative for Men

HIM will be hosting a weekly peer-led drop-in program to support you in achieving your goals related to sexualized substance use (party and play), connecting with the community, and accessing local resources from a peer navigator. Drop-In Program participants will also have access to group and one-to-one counselling sessions. See here checkhimout.ca/pnp-and-me/ for details.

PnP & Me is a harm reduction-based program, which means that abstinence is not a requirement. Your goals may include sobriety, reduced use or safer use, or other changes that support your wellbeing. You may also attend while high and/or drunk.

For more information or if you like to register, please e-mail HIMpeer@checkhimout.ca or call (604) 488-1001.

If you have any accessibility requirements, including ASL interpretation, please contact us as soon as possible so we can arrange this for you.

This group is open to self-identified men (trans, cis, and other men), two-spirit and non-binary folks who also identify as gay, bi, queer, asexual, and/or as guys who are into/or have sex with guys (for any reason – including for work).
