PKI and Clalit Launch Working Group to Improve LGBTQ-Inclusive Maternal Health Information

 
 

Project Kesher Israel (PKI) and Clalit Health Services have launched a joint working group to improve accessibility and inclusion for LGBTQ+ individuals. The initiative addresses the fact that existing pregnancy-related materials in Israel are largely written for heteronormative families.

The working group brings together medical professionals, including PKI’s Anna Talisman, MSW, an LGBTQ gynecologist, and other experts. Together, they are adapting pregnancy and reproductive health information to be LGBTQ-inclusive. The updated materials will be translated into Russian and distributed through relevant medical institutions across Israel.
