Publicly Private

The validation of the LGBTQIA+ community has always been an issue in society, which limits the access to quality resources and care. There is a lack of acceptance and understanding, which leads to discrimination and exclusion. However, changes are happening, and more organizations are coming together to address these issues. Publicly Private is one these organizations, with an initiative that focuses on creating a safe space for the LGBTQIA+ community. We offer a range of resources that cater to different aspects of health and wellness. Let's explore and learn about the different resources available to our Private Side members.

Explore

Publicly Private's main goal is to educate and increase awareness for the LGBTQIA+ community. The Explore section of the initiative focuses on providing resources for members to educate themselves on different topics, including culture, community, and health. The platform takes a comprehensive approach and provides articles and links to different resources, such as support groups and therapists. The information published is relatable, informative, and inclusive, making it a valuable resource. Members can learn from the experiences and perspectives of others, which helps them feel heard and validated.

Venture

Another crucial section of Publicly Private is Venture, which provides accessible and discreet sexual health resources. The platform aims to promote well-being by giving individuals prophylactics and offering STD/STI screening, including HIV testing, in the comfort of their own home. As individuals who belong to the LGBTQIA+ community, we often feel the fear of being discriminated against or judged when seeking medical intervention; thus, Venture provides a service that caters to our needs. The platform offers a range of testing options, such as self-testing kits, tele-consultations, and Physician-directed treatment, making it accessible to everyone.

Strengthen

Mental health is an essential aspect of overall health and wellness, and as a community that has faced marginalization and discrimination, it is imperative to have resources that provide support. Strengthen, a platform provided by Publicly Private catering to mental health issues, offers a range of support groups. These sessions provide consultation with trained professionals in a safe and inclusive environment that help members work through their issues comfortably. Our resources are important as they provide a safe space for members and help distribute valuable information about dealing with mental health issues.

Publicly Private's resources are valuable to the LGBTQIA+ community, as they fill crucial gaps in the provision of health and wellness resources. Through providing accessible and discreet sexual health resources, mental health resources, and educational resources that cater to different aspects of members' lives. Publicly Private's enhances members' general health and well-being, reducing the fears arising from discrimination and stigma. It is time for the society to come together, acknowledging and supporting the LGBTQIA+ communities. Together, let's bridge the gap by providing the necessary resources.
