Designate one image, an art piece designed by artist-activist Cole Thomas, as the International LGBTQ Healthcare Awareness Ribbon. The ribbon may be viewed at www.AGendaBenda.org/
Why is this important?
In the five years since AGenda Benda Justice, Inc. introduced art for this ribbon representing the urgency of healthcare awareness and access for lesbian, gay, transgender and other queer populations locally, nationally, and internationally, other LGBTQ civil rights matters have overshadowed healthcare as a priority. We ask your support for this symbol to become endorsed worldwide as one that unites us in the assertive pursuit for health care focusing on access to cancer screening, mental health care, and nutrition, and on strategies to reduce the rates and severity of addiction, STIs, homelessness, and domestic violence.
