Abstract

Studies consistently show that LGBTQ individuals are at higher risk for substance abuse, tobacco use, suicide, HIV, and chronic health conditions. The Community Health Centers of Burlington recently created a specialty clinic called the Be You Clinic, which will focus on delivering healthcare to LGBTQ persons, by LGBTQ-affirmative and –knowledgeable providers. This project sought to spread awareness of this new clinic by advertising.
