yes honorarium means you get 20$ for going, only 1.5 hrs of talking about meth, the environment is cool, totally non-sketch. just a bunch of non-judegemental people from the organization Youthco who are interested in meth and it's effects on the community.
A couple of the organizers themselves are recreational meth users so it is not like they know nothing about it nor condemn it. |

we are having some trouble finding participants so if anyone has any friends that are gay and use meth or have in the last year please tell them about this post!
20$ for 1.5 hrs, that averages out to 13$ an hour! all this for merely talking about meth and eating snacks! hope everyone is having a wicked day and if anyone has any questions and don't want to call the organization organizing this specifically please feel free to pm me. peace Lisa. |

^^That's just the study that they're doing. If you're going to do a successful study of how something affects people, it's better to narrow your search field to make your study more effective. Same reason as they do studies only involving people age 18-25 or 30-40. I suppose they just want to look at the effects of meth on the gay community.

also, another reason this study is focused on gay men is because the foundation that provided funding only donates money to organizations that specifically focus on gay men.
which i think is wonderful, how often are queer people ignored by our society? why are their health concerns not studied and more information provided on specific risks? i agree that there should be more studies, does anyone want to help fund-raise?
