Legal Workshop on Bill 78

by Head & Hands on

What is Bill 78? Are all public gatherings illegal? How do you contest a ticket? You can find the answers to all these questions and more at the workshop we’re offering on August 6th from 6:00 – 7:30 pm! Come join Andrée Bourbeau, member of the CLASSE legal committee and UQAM law student, who will discuss the impact of Bill 78 and give an update on the tribunal proceedings contesting this law. This will be followed by a presentation on how to contest a ticket from Daniel Barza, a lawyer who volunteers his expertise in criminal and civil law at our legal clinic. If you have questions or concerns about this important issue, we invite you to come out and participate in this night of information sharing, at our offices at 5833 Sherbrooke St. West!

Let’s set the record straight before back-to-school this fall!

Rapid HIV testing clinic at Project 10!!

by Health Services on

 

Head & Hands and Project 10 are teaming up to offer a special rapid HIV testing clinic! Come on down and get tested at the P10 drop-in on Thursday July 5th between 6:30-8:30pm! Dr Tellier from the H&H clinic will be on site to answer questions about safer sex and sexual health.

  • For youth aged 14-25
  • In the basement of 2075 rue Plessis
  • Limited spaces, first come first served.
  • It’s free! (bring your medicare card if you have one)

Why rapid testing?

With rapid HIV testing technology, with a simple prick of the finger you can receive your HIV result in minutes. Knowing your HIV status is an important step for preventing the spread of the virus and treating people living with HIV.

Get tested. Know your status. Because knowledge is power.

Event: Sexercise Your Brain!

by Head & Hands on

There is little we love more than independent initiatives that show that our community loves us!

Next week, come hang and give your brain a sexy workout down the street from us at Shaika! Sexercise Your Brain is an open mic night put on by the Dawson New School and supports our Sense Project. You can “listen to sexy stories, recite steamy poetry, sing amorous songs, or share any other racy art form,” so if you’ve got something to say, sing, or shout (or you just want to listen) join us and support us!

Did You Know?

by Head & Hands on

A lot of you probably know about services like our medical and legal clinics, counseling, and Sense Project sexual health workshops–at least based on how many phone calls we get about them! Today we’d like to highlight a few of our less visible services. Did you know that Head & Hands offers…

  • Accompaniment! Sometimes life throws you situations that can be confusing or scary.  Our team is available to go with you to your abortion appointment or court date to provide support and help clarify the process.
  • Tons of community workshops! Besides sex ed, we’ve got workshops on racial profiling, legal rights, drugs, healthy boundaries, and relationships. We are often able to tailor workshops to the needs of your school, group home, community centre, or organization. One example? “Paddling the Pink Canoe: The Importance of Talking About Female Sexual Pleasure.”
  • Food Pantry! Up to twice a month, youth can drop by the main offices to pick up groceries intended to last 1-2 days in emergency situations.
  • Free tutoring! Every fall, we match students aged 12 – 18 with volunteer tutors based on scheduling and subject. The pairs work together weekly at Head & Hands.

Annie Sprinkle's free sex clinic - looks fun to me!

This is a really fun and rare opportunity to talk (for FREE!) with one of the funniest and most innovative sex educators in the world. As one of the strongest advocates for sex-positive, feminist health & sexuality, Annie Sprinkle is a big-time sex ed hero of ours at Head & Hands (and if you’ve ever come to one of our health clinic nights, you may have even been lucky enough to assume her identity for a short while, thanks to our anonymous waiting room name cards!).

If you’re feeling shy or don’t have time to meet Annie tomorrow, send us your questions through our Formspring account! If we don’t have the answer, it’s pretty likely that Annie does.

See you tomorrow!!
