LGBTQIA+ Advocacy Initiative

The Health Consumer Alliance’s LGBTQIA+ Advocacy Initiative centers on the rights of the LGBTQIA+ community to access culturally competent and high-quality care.

We have three main priorities at the moment: ensuring access to gender-affirming care, advocating for effective and consistent collection of sexual orientation and Gender Identity (SOGI) information in health systems, and protecting against discrimination in health settings and systems.

Please note that our LGBTQIA+ Advocacy Initiative website is currently under construction, but stay tuned for upcoming updates.

 

The advocate gave me excellent service. I was very impressed by her knowledge and helpfulness in resolving not only the problem for my husband but she found another issue regarding my coverage that helped me considerably.
