Since 2015, The Healthier Masculinities initiative by the AMS SASC has engaged men at UBC in activities and discussions that focus on positive expressions of masculinity. By providing the space to look inward, we aim to foster meaningful connections based on shared experience and knowledge, nurturing personal growth and broadening perspectives beyond traditional boundaries. Programming includes casual events, community-building, and thoughtful discussion sessions.
Men’s Circle is a drop-in dialogue group where men share their experiences, challenges, and wins related to a set of topics. Past discussions have included: mental health and suicidality, navigating relationships, substance use, masculinity in the media, and more. This is an open space for learning and dialogue- no specific knowledge is necessary to participate.

All Men’s Circles run on Tuesdays from 6:30-7:30pm in AMS Nest Room 2508, with free pizza provided!
