Health Education & Outreach
Callen-Lorde strives to promote health and wellness by providing LGBT-affirmative health education to all of our patients. Our mission is to supply the LGBT community with health care information that can empower them to make their own health care decisions.
We also provide health information, training, and education to both communities and institutions outside of Callen-Lorde to ensure that LGBT people receive safe and supportive health care services.
