Relationships, jobs, connecting with the larger gay community, coming out, self esteem - these are just some concerns and challenges many gay or bisexual men experience. Talking often helps, especially with someone who has been there and can relate to your concerns.

It's sometimes difficult for gay or bisexual men to find someone who understands the special circumstances that often go along with being gay. And for some, professional counseling is not an option. Gay Men's Peer Counseling group of Whitman-Walker Clinic, established by a group of volunteers in 1976, exists to meet these needs.
