Southern Virginia LGBTQIA+ Access Initiative

March 8, 2023 by br5me@virginia.edu

LGBTQIA+ individuals have a unique relationship with healthcare providers that frequently includes discrimination and unfair treatment. This project will equip providers with skills and resources to serve individuals who identify as LGBTQIA+ to ensure that everyone in rural Virginia has access to healthcare in a safe and affirmative environment and connect individuals with providers who give cancer screening and are culturally competent and trained to work with diverse populations.
