Connection looks different for everyone. REACH offers a variety of support groups and ongoing connection opportunities designed to meet people where they are—whether that’s in a group setting, one-on-one, online, or in person.
All support offerings are optional, confidential, and rooted in respect, choice, and shared experience.
Support at REACH is not one-size-fits-all. Some people find connection through regular group conversations, while others prefer quieter, more personal forms of support. Many people participate in a mix of both over time.
There is no pressure to share more than you’re comfortable with, and participation is always flexible.
A supportive space for adults living with HIV to connect with others who understand similar life experiences. This group offers conversation, shared support, and community in a confidential online setting.
This group is for individuals who have lived through the early years of the HIV epidemic. It provides space to reflect, connect, and share experiences with others who have walked similar paths.
A support group for parents and caregivers of children living with HIV. Conversations often include parenting, advocacy, school, medical systems, and navigating everyday life.
A relaxed, conversational space for REACH women to connect, share, and support one another. This group meets every other month and focuses on connection rather than structured discussion.
An in-person gathering for moms of young children, offering space for connection, encouragement, and shared understanding in a supportive environment.
Some support happens best outside of group settings. REACH offers ongoing, personalized ways to stay connected and supported over time.
REACH Mentoring provides a one-on-one experience for REACH youth, teens and young adults to experience companionship, encouragement and honest conversation with a Christian friend and role model. Mentors will share life experiences, listen, offer support, and share the hope one can have through Jesus Christ.
Meet a Buddy is a gentle way to get connected to REACH. New individuals can be introduced—either in person or on Zoom—to one or two longtime REACH community members who share similar life experiences.
This option is especially helpful for those who feel nervous about joining groups or events.
REACH stays in touch through birthday cards, check-in calls, texts, visits, and messages. These ongoing touchpoints help ensure people feel remembered, supported, and part of the community—even when they aren’t attending events.
Support offerings are available to individuals, parents, caregivers, and families connected to REACH who are seeking:
Community with shared understanding
A safe place to talk and listen
Flexible, optional ways to connect
Support that grows over time
