Health Care Action Group
This group is dedicated to improving sexual health care, focusing on prevention, diagnosis, treatment and counseling services across the lifespan. To this end, the group will create new materials, if needed; identify and promote existing provider education materials; and engage with national health care influencers and quality assurance organizations to help put sexual health on their agendas.
