October 19, 2018 - CAMP Rehoboth Health & Wellness

CAMP Rehoboth Offers Variety in Fall Programs

At CAMP Rehoboth, the Health and Wellness programs cover more than HIV prevention, education & testing—they cover a full gamut of health programs to help the community live full and productive lives. Wellness programs focus on preventive care, improving socialization, and support. All Health and Wellness programs are organized by Salvatore Seeley; many require registration, many are free, and all are presented by thoughtful experts in their fields. 

Here is a round-up of programs available through CAMP Rehoboth this Fall. For a day-by-day listing of programs sponsored by CAMP Rehoboth, either onsite or elsewhere, check out the CAMP Calendar on the website.

PrEP Education Comes to CAMP Rehoboth

In the past five years, medications with the generic title PrEP (Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis) have become one of the most highly effective ways of stopping the spread of HIV. It consists of one pill taken once a day—i.e., easy to use! PrEP is an effective prevention strategy for reducing HIV acquisition risk by 90-99% if taken as prescribed.

For this reason, CAMP Rehoboth is leading the way to provide coordinated services in Delaware for referrals and resources regarding PrEP. In September, CAMP Rehoboth hosted service providers from around the state who wanted to learn about PrEP and how to integrate screening, resources, and referrals into existing programs. The goal of this workshop was to educate service providers so community members who would benefit from PrEP would get the most accurate and up-to date information.

PrEP is recommended for men who have sex with men, people who inject drugs, transgender men and women, and heterosexual adults who are at high risk for HIV infection.▼

Silver Pride
CAMP Rehoboth, October 25 at
2 p.m.

Network, socialize and learn at the Silver Pride group at CAMP Rehoboth.

Each month a different speaker brings important information to the community. The October 25 speaker/topic is Cadbury at Home. Cadbury at home is a program that uniquely combines the most important features of long-term care into one complete plan. Their members live independently at home for as long as possible. If you would like to attend this meeting—please RSVP to 302-360-7179 or info@cadburyathome.org.▼

CAMP Rehoboth, last Tuesday of each month, October 30 at 6 p.m.

This group enables parents to network with other families who are going through similar experiences while raising a transgender or gender nonconforming child.

Issues explored include school, legal matters, privacy, siblings, extended family, and medical considerations. For more information, please contact Salvatore Seeley at CAMP Rehoboth (302-227-5620) or email salvatore@camprehoboth.com.▼

Beginners Genealogy Workshop: Who Are My Peeps?
CAMP Rehoboth, November 14 & 15, 6-8 p.m.

This two-evening workshop will introduce participants to the fun—and benefit—of creating a family tree. Creating such a tree can be important for a variety of reasons, including insights into your family history, a broader cultural appreciation, and valuable medical history information. (That last might even lead to an exploration of genetic genealogy through DNA testing!) Developing a family tree also allows family facts and stories to be passed to future generations.▼

Caring for someone with Alzheimer's disease or a related disorder can be super stressful for the caregiver.
