cen er
Adlagn05is of AIDS doesn't mean that Ufe isover. lLdoes mean,
however, that each day becomes a quesL to stay well - a
quest that can become incre3Singly difficult with the
passage of lime. Changes in health can mean loss,
stress and troubled relationships. The absence of
meaningful activity robs people of hope, and isolatlon
becomes more devastating than illness.
Al the Nebraska AIDS Project (NAP), 12 years of
serving people with HIV/AIDS ha1'e taught us that
"wellness" means good health care and selfdeterminalion. II also means being part of a
supportive community. The Wellness Center
of the Nebraska AIDS Project Is committed to
building that community and to creating a
safe, accessible environment that nurtures
growth, provides services and that allows
individuals 10 create for themsell'es the social
and recreational activities so essential 1 life.
