You are invited to attend Positive Living BC’s next lunch and learn session by webinar. You will be able to listen, participate in the discussion, and ask questions. Please forward this to anyone you think might be interested. The event is open to all. 

Topic: Body image is complex – it encompasses our perception of our physical and social self, plus how we think others see us. Join us to learn about the latest research on how HIV and antiretroviral therapy impact our metabolism, plus physical effects of treatment for people living with HIV. In order to lessen the impacts of depression connected to body image, this issue must be addressed in health care settings. Community interventions are also needed to address stigma and negative body image to improve the lives of people living with HIV.

Please ensure you have installed the webinar software before the webinar starts, as it can take some time to load.
