NAQC March Webinar - Strategies for Building LBGT Faith and Confidence in Quitlines

You are invited to join us on Wednesday, March 13 from 12:30-2:00 PM ET for the next NAQC webinar on Strategies for Building LBGT Faith and Confidence in Quitlines.

According to the American Lung Association’s review of Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance Survey (BRFSS) data from five states, LGBT people smoke at rates approximately 35% to 200% higher than non-LGBT people.¹ Additionally, we know that LGBT’s experience institutional, financial and personal barriers that limit access to healthcare, including cessation interventions, and that only 27 states are able to report on straight, gay/lesbian, and bisexual callers. Join us for a discussion with the Network for LGBT Health Equity on identifying effective strategies for partnering with organizations that serve the LGBT community in order to build faith and confidence in quitline services.
