LGBTQ Community of Practice

The Allegheny County Department of Human Services (DHS) Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer/Questioning (LGBTQ) Community of Practice was established to advise the director and senior staff of the Allegheny County Department of Human Services on issues related to the human service needs of LGBTQ residents.

Representing diverse sub-populations among service providers and the LGBTQ community, LGBTQ Community of Practice participants identify evolving needs of the community and advise the department regarding culturally sophisticated, inclusive and responsive practices that meet these needs, as well as providing all interested parties an opportunity to share information and resources across a wide range of topics.
