The lesbian, gay, transgender, and bisexual community have made extraordinary social and political strides in the last 20 years. With these strides has come research to support that the community also faces unique health care challenges, resulting in health disparities that challenge the community as well as the health care industry. This practicum is an educational program that is designed as a 12-week graduate level course about health care issues unique to this community that is supported by evidence-based research and best practices in the community. The educational program outlines (a) an overview of the community, (b) legal and ethical considerations, (c) significant health issues in the community, (d) the spectrum of care, and (e) a review of existing curricula. This practicum, based on an evidence-based literature review, addresses the nature and extent of health care issues faced by the LGBT community. This practicum project provides an overview of the methodology and procedures to be employed and outlines the benefits to the population receiving this course. This practicum project was developed with the input and assistance of the formative and summative committees. The overall goal of this project to bring social awareness to a complex issue and to review evidencebased research to improve the overall quality of care to the lesbian, gay, transgender, and bisexual community.

Deeply ingrained attitude of homophobic and transphobic, often combined with a lack of legal protection enough from discrimination on grounds of sexual orientation and gender identity, revealing many lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) people of all ages and in all regions of the world to violation of their human rights. They are discriminated against in the labor market, in schools and in hospitals, abused and disowned by their own families. They were relegated to the assault -beaten, sexually assaulted, tortured and killed.

In this paper we argue the importance of including gender and sexually diverse populations in policy development towards a more inclusive form of health promotion. We emphasize the need to address the broad health and wellbeing issues and needs of LGBT people, rather than exclusively using an illness-based focus such as HIV/AIDS. We critically examine the limitations of population health, the social determinants of health (SDOH), and public health goals, in light of the lack of recognition of gender and sexually diverse individuals and communities. By first acknowledging the unique health and social care needs of LGBT people, then employing anti-oppressive, critical and intersectional analyses we offer recommendations for how to make population health perspectives, public health goals, and the design of public health promotion policy more inclusive of gender and sexual diversity. In health promotion research and practice, representation matters. It matters which populations are being targeted for health promotion interventions and for what purposes, and it matters which populations are being overlooked. In Canada, current health promotion policy is informed by population health and social determinants of health (SDOH) perspectives, as demonstrated by Public Health Goals for Canada. With Canada's multicultural makeup comes the challenge of ensuring that diverse populations are equitably and effectively recognized in public health and health promotion policy.

The struggle to end discrimination against lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender persons is a global challenge, and one that is central to the United States’ commitment to promoting human rights.” -United Stated President Barrack Obama (2011)
