YMHP: Young Men’s Health Project

YMHP
How can we help guys in the club scene stay safe?


YMHP is designed to better understand connections between club drug use (e.g., cocaine, methamphetamine, ecstasy, ketamine) and sexual risk taking for young men who have sex with men (MSM). The project includes interviews and assessments with gay and bisexual men in order to better understand their experiences with sex and drugs in the club scene. Eligible participants are also given the opportunity to enroll in a 4-session counseling and/or education program that help men identity and achieve risk-reduction goals.
