The Reunion Project, the alliance of HIV long-term survivors, will be hosting our next peer-led community convening in South Carolina, themed "Stories of Strength: Legacies of Love," on Friday and Saturday, August 28 and 29, 2026 at the Eau Claire Print Building (Former City Hall), located at 3907 Ensor Ave, Columbia, SC 2920.

Day one, Friday, August 28, will be an employment forum for all people living with HIV or with reasons for HIV prevention interested in discussions, information, services, and resources to consider options for employment or self-employment, and education. Sessions will explore strategies and experiences of community members related to employment, key programs and resources to consider utilizing, what to know about working while enrolled in public benefits, and opportunities to talk one-on-one with representatives from vital South Carolina and statewide programs and resources, and connections with other community members considering options for work.
Day two, Saturday, August 29, will connect HIV long-term survivors through story-telling and informative workshops. Attendees will learn how to live and age well with HIV. The day will feature a mix of facilitated discussions, presentations, and networking opportunities, all aimed at addressing the unique needs of long-term survivors and individuals aging with HIV in South Carolina. We will also hear from attendees what the needs are for HIV long-term survivors in their area.
