LGBTQ+ health in the spotlight during Pride Month


Listen Later

June is Pride Month to honor the 1969 Stonewall riots that marked the beginning of the fight for LGBTQ rights and works to achieve equal justice and equal opportunity for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and questioning (LGBTQ) Americans. That involves all aspects of the lives of the LGBTQ community.

Access to and affordability of healthcare is a major concern for LGBTQ people and there are some unique challenges as well.

Next Thursday at 8 p.m. on WITF-TV, you can learn more from Transforming Health LGBTQ+ Health.

On Thursday’s Smart Talk, we’re joined by Transforming Health producer Keira McGuire and Christa Nelson, who identifies as a transgender woman.
