LGBTQ Health Disparities Zine 2016 1 | Page 2

PURPOSE Introduce you to some key health disparities in the queer community FOCUS To show the reader that despite actual and perceived progress (both social and legal) LGBTQ Americans still have a long way to go. I will focus mainly on the topics listed in the contents section. DISCLAIMER This is not a comprehensive collection; there exist too many issues to cover in 16 pages. For example, an entire book could be written about Transgender health disparities or conversion therapy. New information is always being generated.
