The National Coalition for LGBT Health

An article recently appeared in the Chicago Tribune that really got me thinking about what we do here at the National Coalition for LGBT Health. What do we want for the LGBT community? What is so wrong with the current healthcare system? Why, essentially, do we do what we do?

Welcome to our brand new website! Of special note are our new fact sheets about implementation of the Affordable Care Act and a fact sheet about the Pre-existing Condition Insurance Plans (PCIPs), one of the largest and most immediate initiatives under the Affordable Care Act.

Hello –

We are busy as always here at the Coalition! You will be hearing from us in the next few weeks with our dates for the fall membership meeting. This meeting will commemorate our 10 year anniversary. As always, we will have an amazing lobby day (the only national lobby day focused solely on LGBT health), but this year we will also have speeches from Administration officials, an in-depth look at how healthcare reform can impact the LGBT community, and a special focus on state involvement. We hope you can join us! 

Best,

Rebecca
