LGBTQ+ Health Equity

LGBTQ+ health equity means ensuring that lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, and other gender or sexual minorities have equal access to quality healthcare, regardless of their identity. It involves recognizing and addressing specific health risks and barriers they face, such as discrimination, stigma, or lack of culturally competent care. The goal is to create an inclusive healthcare system where everyone receives respectful, effective, and personalized treatment, leading to better health outcomes for all members of the LGBTQ+ community.
