Hey folks!

Well the birds are chirping, the bees are buzzing, and the Habs are out of the running, so why not come out of hibernation to attend some fun Head & Hands events?  Here’s a couple upcoming:

Tonight! Faggity Ass Fridays, our monthly queer dance party at the Playhouse!

Is this Life on Mars?

June 16th! Head & Hands will host its AGM (Annual General Meeting) at the NDG Legion (5455 de Maisonneuve Ouest). It’s our 40th anniversary, so help us kick it off in style! Dress as your favourite decade of Head & Hands’ history… My outfit will be inspired by the ’70s, of course!

Happy 40th birthday, Head & Hands!

July 25th! Save the date for our fifth annual bar and restaurant beach volleyball tournament, SERVE! Local bar and resto staff form teams, face off on the Jeanne-Mance courts, and raise money for sex education. This event is a blast to watch and even more fun to participate in - click below for more information!

World AIDS Day is coming up on December 1^st and it’s an awesome opportunity for people around the world to remember and support people living with and affected by HIV and AIDS.

It has been estimated that “there are now 33.2 million people living with HIV, including 2.5 million children. During 2007, 2.5 million people became newly infected with the virus. Around half of all people who become infected with HIV do so before they are 25 and are killed by AIDS before they are 35″(UNAIDS, 2008). Indeed, these shocking statistics call for a dramatic increase in awareness - an awareness that is vital to the improvement of sexual health education and our fight against prejudice.

It is for these reasons that the Sense Project wants to engage people online throughout the month of November in ways that relate to World AIDS Day and its mission. Starting this week, we will be posting a series of myth busting questions and answers as well as opinion polls for you to participate in. We hope that you will take this as a fun opportunity to learn and educate others about this very important issue.

Please make your voices heard!!!
