Join our group this summer for ten meetings,
tell us what you think about our new program,
Decisions For Life (DFL)!
DFL was designed by young people for young people like you! DFL will give you HONEST and accurate information about HIV/AIDS that will help you to:
· STAY HEALTHY!
· avoid unhealthy relationships!
· improve your communication skills!
· improve your decision-making skills!
· improve your refusal and negotiation skills!
· increase your awareness of personal values!
If you’re interested, why don’t you sign up for the group by contacting Nadine (see below). Our group will be made up of guys like you. We’ll meet for ten meetings in the West Reading area. The group will begin on or around July 8 and will end around August 7.
Each DFL meeting will be absolutely CONFIDENTIAL, so that you’ll feel comfortable participating. You will NEVER be asked to discuss anything personal. If you don’t feel comfortable for any reason, you can leave at any time.
You’ll earn $25 for each meeting you attend! That’s $250 if you come to all ten sessions!!! (You don’t have to attend all ten sessions.) And you’ll learn some new things, maybe meet some new people, have some fun, and you’ll be helping us to improve this GREAT program.
If you want to participate, or if you’d like more information
about the group, please call or email Nadine any time before June 10th:
Nadine Smet-Weiss
610.375.6523 (ask for extension 107)
And if you have friends who are (g/b/q) males, around 16-18 years old, tell them to call Nadine, too.
Once 15 guys have signed up for the group by contacting Nadine, a date and location for our first meeting will be chosen. (Nadine will then contact you with this information.)
Here are some things that other young people have told us about the project:
· AWESOME!
· It made me realize that it’s important to take care of yourself.
· I learned a lot of things about HIV that I never knew about.
· I learned so much about protecting myself and the skills to have a healthy relationship.
· This program is a very big help to young adults like me!!
· I think it will definitely help me in the future because I will think twice now before I act. The facts about HIV were shocking and had an effect on me. I will definitely protect myself!
· It has helped me and changed my way of life for the better. THANKS!! J
