The workshops are facilitated by two trained leaders, one or both of whom are non-health professionals with HIV. Subjects covered include:
  1. Techniques to deal with problems such as frustration, fear, fatigue, pain and isolation.
  2. Appropriate exercise for maintaining and improving strength, flexibility, and endurance.
  3. Communicating effectively with family, friends, and health professionals.
