The Fun & Esteem Project is for gay and bisexual guys 26 years and under.  We run different workshops and events which give you the chance to talk about being gay, coming out, sex and sexual health, HIV, relationships, the gay community and other issues that may concern you.  Participating in our programs also allows you to meet other young gay and bisexual guys who may be experiencing the same kinds of things you are.

Fun & Esteem runs two main workshops.

Start Making Sense runs one night a week for six weeks, and is for guys up to 26 years old.  It starts at 6:30pm and goes until about 9:30pm, followed by coffee with the group.  For more information, click here.

School’s Out is an afternoon discussion group for guys 18 years and under.  It runs one afternoon a week over a number of weeks, starting at 4:30pm and going until 6:00pm.  For more information, click here.

Fun & Esteem also runs other programs.  These include:  a workshop on relationships, a workshop on sex and sexual techniques (called Adult Themes), community forums and social events.  We will be developing a new program specifically for young gay and bisexual guys who are HIV positive.  We also have an email list to keep people informed about what we are doing.  If you would like to be added to this list, please contact us.

All of our workshops and events involve volunteers.  Volunteers are absolutely vital to the success of Fun & Esteem.  If you are interested in volunteering, contact us!
