Stigma

Hello,

How might stigma be reduced in terms of a group being formed i.e. the group consisting of other individuals who are being stigmatised for the same reason i.e. HIV.

Thanks.

Could you re-phrase your question, please? I read it three times and still am not certain what you are asking.

Do you mean, using your example, how could forming a support group for those with HIV help reduce the stigma of the disease?

~Mel

the group members accept each other

and find strength in their mutual supportiveness.

then each feels better able to cope

with other aspects of life

a support group with members who meet together

regularly, consistently, reliably.

Is this what you mean?

Or is it that belonging to the group stigmatizes the member as HIV+, so that no one wants to join?
