Quick Links
This website was intentionally written with as little bias towards any identity as possible, given the existing resources that we had to draw upon. In this section, you will find some resources that link you directly to identity-specific websites. Keep in mind that the size of the lists is not intended to be biased. Sometimes gay or lesbian websites also address bisexual and transgender issues. We did our best to find quality, reliable websites. You may know of many others that we missed. If so, don’t be shy to share your favourites among the GLBTT* community.

The content and language of this website is intended to be inclusive and respectful of all GLBTT* people, but it would be nearly impossible for one website to fully represent the diversity of this community. The content on this site was developed in consultation with health care professionals and with the members of the GLBTT* Health Promotion Coalition. However, it is important to note that the information in this website should not be used as a substitute for medical and/or legal advice.
