The first AIDS Mastery Workshop was done in January
1986 in New York at the Actors Institute. The workshop was created by Sally Fisher in response to her friends in the
creative arts being affected early on by HIV and because nothing was yet available that spoke of personal empowerment.
There have been over 60 AIDS Mastery Workshops in Oklahoma City with over 800 graduates
since 1988.
The AIDS Mastery Workshop offers the opportunity to
find ways of living well, of opening up new possibilities or rediscovering them.
Exploring
experiences, hopes and dreams offers a way to live differently empowering you to make positive choices about how to live life
with HIV rather than being controlled by it.
The result will be the opportunity
to live a more powerful life, make better choices and decisions and become part of a support group like no other.
The workshop has been life changing for some people.
There is no cost to participants. NLA, OKC is
funded entirely through grants, fundraisers and individual donations. Bi-lingual (spanish) workshops are available.
