Health Disparities in the LGBT Community

Lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) patients experience significant disparities in care.

Lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender people are a sizable minority.

By demystifying this community and improving the dissemination of accurate information, our goal is to reduce health care disparities, improve the quality of care and increase the support received by this underserved population.
