Part 1: Introducing Weaving our Wisdoms

Welcome to WoW! Let us first give thanks to those who have come before us, the territories and lands where we do our work, and the people and community we serve. 
Part 2: What is an HIV Older?

In this first Tipi Talk, Valerie Nicholson shares with us what it means to be an HIV Older, a leader in the community with an eagle-eye perspective on living long term with HIV. 
Part 3: Medicine from the land and water 

HIV Older Knighton Hillstrom tells his story "Growing up on a Trap Line." Sit back and listen to his beautiful recounting of learning about land medicine from his Kokum and how these ancestral teachings help him harness the strength in his mind, body, heart, and spirit. 
Part 4: Weaving Allyship

Meet the WoW team! We are a group of HIV Olders, community- and university-based researchers working and learning together to support living well with HIV through positive action initiatives rooted in and on the land.
