Gentle reminder:

If you ask me to "share [my] time and expertise" and give your organization "guidance and advice" about how you can best "continue [your] efforts to advance health equity efforts across the US," you're asking me to do consulting work.

1/

I'm grateful that you want to learn how to do a better job providing LGBTQ+ inclusive care -- I really am.

2/

But just because I'm grateful doesn't mean I have the time, energy, or inclination to give your organization free consulting.

3/

If my knowledge and expertise is something you need, I'm happy to discuss giving you access to that knowledge and expertise through a formal consulting arrangement.

4/

Bottom line: If you want an LGBTQ+ person to help your organization learn how to provide the kind of care you should have been providing all along, you need to pay for that help.
