Overview

Mission

To achieve health equity and improve the safety and well-being of lgbtq people and communities in Wisconsin.

What it reported doing in 2024

At diverse & resilient, we focus our efforts and programming on reducing the health disparities affecting lgbtq communities across Wisconsin. We know that social determinants of health including poverty, unequal access to health care, anti-lgbtq discrimination and stigma are all linked to these disparities.we identify barriers and promote increased access to culturally-competent services for lgbtq people. We collect both qualitative and quantitative data from individuals across the state covering a number of lgbtq health disparities including intimate partner violence (both youth and adults), substance use and abuse, healthcare accessibility, condom usage and accessibility.our work focuses on six pillars of intervention: sexual health, substance use, community and intimate partner violence, leadership development, lgbtq acceptance, and mental health. We provide evidence-based programs and services to address each of these areas, both in milwaukee and throughout the state.
