Health

Health is a core pillar of concern for LGBTQ2S+ people. Pink Triangle Press (PTP), Xtra’s parent company, recognizes the need for science-based and shame-free information about your health. PTP believes its new digital publication, Script, can help expand what’s available. Please visit Script.Health for health stories that previously would have been published on this page by Xtra.
