Article: Love Beyond Biology Examining nursing choices and obstacles for LGBTQ+ families provide insight into the varied and distinct terrain of motherhood. In a world where love may take on a multitude of forms, raising a kid becomes a complex adventure filled with deliberate decisions and unique concerns. This essay explores the legal, ethical, and emotional aspects of this enlightening journey, as well as the avenues accessible to LGBTQ+ families, from forced lactation to navigating donor milk alternatives. Throughout, the need of having a strong support network that encompasses not just the LGBTQ+ community but also the general public and medical professionals, becomes apparent.

Pansexual and Panromantic Awareness and Visibility Day is an opportunity to celebrate and recognize the identities, experiences, and contributions of pansexual and panromantic individuals. It's a day to raise awareness about the diversity within the LGBTQ+ community, particularly focusing on those who identify as pansexual or panromantic. Visibility and awareness days like this help combat stigma, foster understanding, and promote inclusivity. They provide platforms for education, support, and empowerment for those within the pansexual and panromantic communities and beyond. It's also an opportunity for allies to show their solidarity and amplify the voices of those who often face marginalization or erasure.

Let’s talk about social health. “A global survey of 7,856 sexual minority adults across 85 countries found that 75% reported feeling at least moderately lonely. LGBTQ+ individuals who report isolation and loneliness are more likely to report chronic disease, poor self-rated health, mental health conditions, and suicidality.” This comprehensive report from Eidos LGBTQ+ Health Initiative outlines the social health disparities in the LGBTQ+ community and provides solutions to promote social safety, connection, and belonging. We’re better together— it’s time to create effective change. Check out the link below for the full report!
The US Surgeon General declared a nationwide epidemic of loneliness, but how does this impact LGBTQ+ communities uniquely? Eidos' newest report reveals the stark disparities: LGBTQ+ people experience significantly higher rates of loneliness and isolation, contributing to poorer health outcomes. This reality must be changed! Dive into our comprehensive report to explore the intricate landscape of queer health and social connection, uncovering recommendations for a more equitable future. ➡️ https://lnkd.in/eenJiXX2
