Welcome to SISTA’S OF UZIMA

 A new chat group/forum via YAHOO Chat Groups – Sista’s of UZIMA.

The development of this group is in keeping with the feedback that came out the March 5th forum for service users. The participants who attended this forum have requested the creation of a chat service separate from the message board on the UZIMA Website. 

 This chat forum will enable HIV+ African and Caribbean women to discuss health and social issues within a supportive and empowering online community. Women, who are interested in joining, will be required to register with an email address. For confidentiality purposes, their email address will not be displayed when posting a message or chatting on line.
