March 18th thru the 22nd is National LGBTQ+ Health Awareness Week. The National Coalition for LGBTQ Health created the health awareness week in 2000 to raise awareness about timely and relevant issues impacting LGBTQ+ health care. The same year the Coalition was founded. It represents LGBT individuals, health care/service providers, researchers, and advocates. The theme for the week is "Vital Vibrant Voices."
