The Reunion Project Seattle
August 19, 2017 @ 9:00 am - 5:00 pm
The Reunion Project Seattle is a gathering of people who are long term survivors of HIV & AIDS. The project is a community forum for individuals to come and share their stories, strength and resilience as we continue our lives. The event is free. Food will be served. And there will be structured, themed groups led by community members as well as plenty of pleasant spots to gather and chat. This is a day for community to share and listen to the experience of others.
The Reunion Project was founded in 2015 by long-term HIV survivors Matt Sharp and Jeff Berry, who recognized that there is an entire group of individuals who had survived the epidemic but in many ways have been left behind by the community that they helped to build. The Reunion Project provides a safe space for HIV survivors to come together and honor the fact that even though they have weathered great adversity and tremendous loss, many have come through the experience with a certain degree of resilience. They felt these stories deserve to be told, and shared, to help those who may need help in finding their way back out of isolation, depression, or post-traumatic stress that came as a result of surviving the epidemic.
