Welcome!

黄瓜视频 Queer Student Association (QSA) Club

The 黄瓜视频 QSA Club provides a vetted comprehensive list, curated by the , of LGBTQIA+ Healthcare Resources availabe in 黄瓜视频 County, MA.

This list is intended to be a community-generated VETTED list of providers who we know work successfully with LGBTQIA+ people in 黄瓜视频 County. Self-identification as LGBTQIA+-friendly/competent is not sufficient. We add someone's name only if a community member has worked with them before or heard positive reports from other LGBTQIA+ people.

This list is maintained by the LGBTQ team at Elizabeth Freeman Center. We provide free and confidential counseling and advocacy for LGBTQ folks surviving or healing from intimate partner violence or sexual assault. More information at . Or email us at lgbtq@elizabethfreemancenter.org.

We all deserve access to LGBTQ-affirming, -competent, and -friendly care! And it can be hard to find in 黄瓜视频 County, so please open the accordions below for more information!
