What is The Hayride?
The Hayride is the longest continuously running support group for people dealing with
HIV/AIDS and other and other life challenging issues, in the United States. The Hayride
continues to encourage everyone to shed their fear, anger and frustration, while using
self-love and dignity to confront the challenges of HIV and AIDS. This is a support group
for people AFFECTED by HIV and AIDS. That means those personally infected with HIV, as
well as their parents, family, and friends.
What does The Hayride believe in?
We support everyone in their search to improve the quality of their lives. This group is
not a replacement for medical treatment. It is an addition to whatever other treatment you
may be getting.
We are not here to play "Ain't it Awful"! We are here to do everything we can to empower ourselves in all areas of our lives.
We believe in the dignity of all people and do our best to practice unconditional Love. We believe in the power of our words and thoughts and try to choose those thoughts and words that best serve us.
We believe in the power of releasing resentment and in the power of
Forgiveness. We believe in letting go of pain and experiencing the magnificence of our own
being. And most of all, WE BELIEVE IN THE POWER OF LOVE.
What can The Hayride do for me?
The Hayride provides an opportunity to collect HIV/AIDS information and publications,
learn about community events, and share in the strength and experience of a group which
has approached the AIDS epidemic with LOVE, DIGNITY, AND COMPASSION.
What is the history of The Hayride?
Louise L. Hay, a pioneer in support for and by people living with HIV/AIDS, founded The
Hayride in 1985. Stuart facilitated the HIV support group from 1992 until his
move to Humboldt County CA in 2007. He
is a well-known psychotherapist and rebirther. Stuart's goal is to heal
the pain of old behavior patterns through psychotherapeutic processing. He believes that
The Hayride is unique because it, "combines very practical needs for support with LOVE,
COMPASSION, AND A SPIRITUAL CONNECTION."
Who is welcome to participate?
All are welcome to join. The meetings are free to participants, although a donation or
Love offering is suggested for those who can afford it.
