Pride With Heart

In June, we uplift the LGBTQ+ community for Pride Month. For over 50 years, they have marched to commemorate their struggle and fight against discrimination in health care, employment, and housing across the country and around the globe.

As the crisis of health inequity takes a toll on underrepresented and under-resourced communities,

LGBTQ+ individuals also find they are heavily impacted because of their diversity of age, race, gender identity, ethnicity, location, and socio-economic level.
56%
of sexual minorities report some form of discrimination by clinicians. That number goes up to 70% when gender is an issue.
