Raise Your Voice for LGBTQ!
Our state has become a leader in collecting data to measure health disparities impacting the overall wellness of its LGBTQ population. Since 2015, a growing network of organizations has helped to collect data about the health needs and barriers to care experienced by thousands of LGBTQ Pennsylvanians.
Beginning March 9, this coalition will be collecting data for the 2020 PA LGBTQ Needs Assessment. For the first time, there is a Spanish language version of the assessment
Special efforts are being made to encourage participation from underrepresented subpopulations including LGBTQ youth, people of color, members of rural communities, and transgender and gender non-conforming individuals. As we seek to capture a greater diversity of perspectives, we hope to promote a better understanding of the unique experiences of members throughout the LGBTQ community and throughout the state.
Every person who partakes in the survey will be helping Pennsylvania’s department of health learn more about how to promote the health and wellbeing of LGBTQ people. The data collected will fuel community-based programs designed to close gaps in service and address health disparities. Together, we will build a stronger, healthier community.

¡Levanta tu voz para LGBTQ!
Nuestro estado se ha convertido en un líder en la recopilación de datos para medir las disparidades de salud que afectan el bienestar general de su población LGBTQ. Desde 2015, una red creciente de organizaciones ha ayudado a recopilar datos sobre las necesidades de salud y las barreras para la atención que experimentan miles de residentes de Pennsylvania LGBTQ.
A partir del 9 de marzo, esta coalición recopilará datos para la Evaluación de necesidades LGBTQ de PA de 2020. Por primera vez, hay una versión en español de la evaluación.
Se están haciendo esfuerzos especiales para alentar la participación de subpoblaciones subrepresentadas, incluidos jóvenes LGBTQ, personas de color, miembros de comunidades rurales e individuos transgénero y no conformes con el género. A medida que buscamos capturar una mayor diversidad de perspectivas, esperamos promover una mejor comprensión de las experiencias únicas de los miembros en toda la comunidad LGBTQ y en todo el estado.
Cada persona que participe en la encuesta ayudará al departamento de salud de Pensilvania a aprender más sobre cómo promover la salud y el bienestar de las personas LGBTQ. Los datos recopilados alimentarán los programas comunitarios diseñados para cerrar las brechas en el servicio y abordar las disparidades de salud. Juntos, construiremos una comunidad más fuerte y saludable.
