GLMA: Health Professionals Advancing LGBTQ+ Equality (GLMA) is an association of LGBTQ+ and allied health professionals in the United States. Its members include health professionals, such as physicians, nurses, physician associates, behavioral health specialists, researchers and academics, and their supporters.
History
Founded in 1981 as the American Association of Physicians for Human Rights, GLMA changed its name in 1994 to the Gay and Lesbian Medical Association, and later again in 2012 to simply GLMA: Health Professionals Advancing LGBT Equality, later adding the Q in 2018.[1]
Research activities
In the summer of 2006, GLMA undertook a project to investigate the causes and extent of methamphetamine use among gay men and other men who have sex with men (MSM), options for treating methamphetamine dependence, and how best to get methamphetamine-dependent gay men into appropriate treatment, as well as to explore other issues and controversies associated with these issues.[2]
Advocacy
GLMA worked with the American Medical Association (AMA) to adopt measures requiring "the physician's nonjudgmental recognition of sexual orientation and behavior," and to reverse a 13-year-old AMA policy of encouraging programs to acquaint gay patients with "the possibility of sex preference reversal in selected cases."[3] They formerly published the Journal of the Gay and Lesbian Medical Association.Шаблон:Citation needed
