Cultural Competency Task Force LGBTQ Sub Committee

The 2013 Greater Lowell Community Health Needs Assessment highlighted that members of the LGBTQ community are at great risk.  The report stated that members who are isolated or without family support are at risk of developing mental health, substance abuse and other issues. There is a lack of sensitivity to this community by many healthcare professionals, a lack of outreach, as well as a lack of awareness of transgender individuals.  Individuals in this community tend to go to Boston to seek care, as there is a better sense of acceptance, expertise and confidentiality.The Sub Committee aims to address these concerns.

The next meeting will be on September 24, 2015, 12 – 2pm, 2nd Floor Board Room, Lowell General Hospital, Saints Campus, 1 Hospital Drive, Lowell, MA
