Lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, intersex, and asexual (LGBTQIA+) citizens are a diverse community. However, they share a common need for culturally competent health care that recognizes and responds to specific risks and challenges due to social and structural inequities such as stigma and discrimination. This webinar aims to educate stakeholders on the needs and experiences of the LGBTQIA+ community and inform how HRSA health centers can effectively serve this community by addressing local needs and disparities and identifying opportunities to advance health equity through training, education, and collaboration with local community organizations.
