Upcoming SPFPP Events: Navigating Stigma, Building Connection, and Empowering Health
socialize and build community, and maybe even find your person at one of our events!
At Something Positive for Positive People (SPFPP), our events are designed to empower people with practical tools for navigating life with herpes and other STIs in a stigma-free, supportive environment. The SPFPP Expo brings together STI prevention and sex education, focusing on both safety and pleasure. Through interactive workshops, participants gain skills for identifying and communicating their needs in relationships, creating a foundation for healthier and more fulfilling connections.
For healthcare professionals, our Herpes Stigma Conference and Stigma-Free Trainings provide essential tools to support patients with herpes and other STIs in a compassionate, judgment-free way. These events cover stigma reduction, patient-centered communication, and best practices for building a more inclusive healthcare environment.
Join us for the Live SPFPP Show on the last Tuesday of each month at 8pm Eastern Time! This virtual event is a live version of our podcast, offering real conversations on herpes stigma, dating, and relationships. Whether you’re seeking support, education, or connection, SPFPP events provide a space for open dialogue and empowerment.
