In addition to our weekly program, THE CIRCLE (on Thursdays), we are planning a series of new programs.

WATCH THIS SPACE FOR NEW PROGRAM ANNOUNCEMENTS

1. For Women only:  

Many of our offered programs may not be what you want and perhaps you might like to enjoy the company of other women with HIV over coffee, tea or a light  dinner.  The PWA Society would like to invite you to this exclusive women only opportunity to get together and talk about your lives, how you are managing and just a general discussion or chat group.  This is a program offer that can become whatever you would like it to be.  We would welcome you to call our office and mention that you would like to be involved and we will gladly set up a convenient time and place for all to make this happen.   Let us include you in what we do.  You have a voice and we would like to hear it.  

Please call our office at 250-382-7927 if you are interested and ask to speak with our new Programs Coordinator and so we can make the arrangements for this exclusive women only group.

2. For Health and fitness during the summer:

VIPWAS has also been approached and asked if we would continue our walking groups during the warm evenings of  summer.  We are delighted to do this and have taken things to a new level.  If you are interested in hiking in more remote (but safe) areas on the lower Vancouver Island and west coast beaches, we have the ability for 15 passenger day excursions to many locations within a 2 hour drive.  Lunch and beverages would be provided and a camera is a must for these outings.   Please call the office for more information.   No dates have been set as we are still seeking the interest in this type of function to add to our positive living attitude.  Be assured no extra strenuous hikes are considered so don’t feel intimidated.  We can guarantee an enjoyable experience for all.  If you have any questions, concerns or further ideas of what you would like to do this summer, please let us know.  There is no cost, please give it a try.  Call us for further information 250-382-7927

3. For Working People

The VPWAS would like to begin to touch base with our members who are in the workforce.  If this includes you and you would like to get together for evening coffee, tea, desert and socialize and talk about your life or anything else, we would very much like to hear from you.  We have no set date for this program but we are eagerly awaiting your phone call to let us know you are interested.  Our first event will be our treat to you for a light dinner for discussion and planning the future events which may include some short travel excursions at very minimal cost.

Please contact the office and speak to our new Programs Coordinator who will be happy to give you further details.  We have a few members who have already expressed interest and we would like to see this program come to fruition for those members who feel left out and do not wish to participate in our regular ‘social events’.  This is an exclusive get together opportunity to meet, share you thoughts or ideas.  Please consider this program and let us know by telephone or email our office directly at either the following:
