I utilize digital communications to tell Black & LGBTQ+ rural stories | Speaker | Creator | Writer | Rural Health | Reproductive Justice
“As the studies and surveys cited here demonstrate, #LGBTQ+ people living in #rural communities encounter the same mental healthcare challenges as other rural Americans, but the disparities in accessing resources and appropriate treatment can be even more difficult because of existing prejudices and discrimination. It’s a call to action for rural communities to come together to increase awareness and dispel the stigma experienced by LGBTQ+ individuals. Some ways communities can help to tackle the disparities include: In rural #healthcare – Educate the workforce, put in place inclusive systems of care, and implement policies that address discrimination. In rural schools – Implement practices and policies to support #LGBTQyouth. In local and state governments – Propose and support laws and public policies that enforce protections against discrimination of LGBTQ+ people.” #RuralHealth
June is Pride Month and we at Rural Minds join individuals and organizations in celebrating the LGBTQ+ community. During #PrideMonth2024, we invite you to access information about the mental healthcare challenges rural LGBTQ+ people face, as well as resources for support: https://bit.ly/3N68ZP9 #RuralMentalHealth #PrideMonth

Remembering #WorldAIDSDay ❤️Reflecting on all those lost and the demonisation/pain of entire minority communities from the 1980s.❤️ 1️⃣Stigma has reduced significantly in high income countries but still remains an issue in different nations globally. 2️⃣HIV prevention and treatment has came along way since the first test was developed in mid 1980s. 3️⃣For a person living with HIV: Antiretroviral therapy with effectice adherence is 99% effective at reducing the risk of the virus being passed on: U-U undetectable~untransmittable. 4️⃣Someone living with HIV who uses on ARV and is undetectable lives as long as someone without HIV. 5️⃣For a person not living with HIV: PrEP or pre-exposure prophylaxis (an ARV medication) with effective adherence reduces the risk of them contracting HIV by up to 99%. 📢These are great advances but more work is needed in global equality to reduce HIV stigma that continues to affect minority communities.📢
Today’s #WorldAIDSDay, a day to spread awareness and to remember the lives of those we have lost. Over the course of the day, we’ll be sharing the work of incredible HIV-focussed organisations across our channels. ❤️ Sending our love to the LGBTQ+ community, as we continue to fight stigma.

🌈 It's International Day Against Homophobia, Transphobia, and Biphobia. Let's stand together and continue to educate ourselves on how we can best support the LGBTQ+ community, and work towards a world free from discrimination and prejudice. As part of our commitment, we asked university students, "How can brands better support the LGBTQ+ community". These insights underscore the significant role brands play in advocating for and supporting the LGBTQ+ community. Let’s take these insights to heart and continue to strive for inclusivity and equality in all that we do. 🧡 #IDAHOBIT2024

How can we support the health and wellbeing of LGBTQ+ youth? According to Jasper Liem, LCSW, Executive Director of Attic Youth Center, we can start by recognizing young people as whole humans who deserve to not only be included, but to lead youth-geared programs, services, and solutions! What would the future of LGBTQ+ health hold if we dismantled power dynamics and trusted the expertise of our youth?

Always Just a Call Away! Preparing for a mortgage? Know your options and speak with a loan officer, like me, who will listen and provide options tailored to you and your finances and wishes, then you make the decisions. The worst thing one can do is find a home and then get pre-approved with the risk of finding out you don’t qualify for some minor reason and can’t currently make an offer. 💪💰 Knowing your buying power is the key to finding your dream home. Get pre-approved for your mortgage today and start your house hunt on the right foot. With same-day service, including weekends!. I'm here to help you every step of the way 7 days a week and always take calls after 5 PM. Know your options and realize your dreams with your Florida Lender. 🌴🌞 #thehelpfulLO #home #house #listreports #homeowner #househunting #realestate #mortgage #loanofficer #investment #finances Don't forget to ask me about the FAIRWAY ADVANTAGE, which gives you the highest buying power and loan approval without a property attached. It's the perfect way to start your search with your realtor, knowing you have an underwritten loan approval before you start looking for your next or new home and can close fast!
