Norman,

I've moved your thread to the Living With Hiv forum where you'll get more replies.

You might try checking out the POZ ASO directory

Welcome to the forums!

HIV is certainly character-building. It's made me see all of the shallow things we cling to, like ego and vanity. Of course, I'd rather have a few more T-cells and a little less character. Randy Shilts

In Atlanta, I think your best bet is here:

http://www.aidssurvivalproject.org/

There are other ASOs, but this one has the best reputation, and the largest number of support groups. Also a terrific program they run four times a year called THRIVE! weekend. Its a weekend long committment, but one of the best HIv educational experiences I have ever had.

I recommend AIDS Survival Project over AID Atlanta, the Grady IDC, and any other organization.
