LGBTQ Subcommittee

LGBTQ Sub- Committee: The 2013 Greater Lowell Community Health Needs Assessments 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 for developing issues surrounding mental health and substance abuse. 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.

The LGBTQ Subcommittee is a group of professionals and community members committed to addressing these issues, raising awareness, and ensuring that ALL members of the Greater Lowell community have access to culturally competent, inclusive, and high quality services and support. The Sub- committee also aims to build a network of resources and individuals in the community who can provide affinity and support to one another.

For more information, please contact co- chairs: Isa Woldeguiorguis or Heather Hilbert

Date: February 11, 2016
Time: 12- 1:30 pm
Location: Center for Hope and Healing, 144 Merrimack St., Suite 304, Lowell MA
