Ask Pride Health

PrideHealth is here to support Two-Spirit, lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, questioning, intersex, and asexual (2SLGBTQIA+) community members by helping make primary healthcare safer, more coordinated, and culturally affirming. Our goal is to walk alongside individuals, families, and NSH/IWK staff as we work together toward health equity and inclusive care for everyone.

We’d love to hear from you. If you have questions, big or small, feel free to send them our way — we’ll be answering them during our monthly segment. And if something feels more urgent, our navigators are always here to help at PrideHealth@nshealth.ca.
