Services across Middlesex County and City of London

Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Two Spirited, Queer (LGBTQ2S+) 
Various organizations provide health and health-related information in a LGBTQ2S+ positive environment. They may house a list of health care resources of particular interest to the LGBTQ2S+ community, provide social and emotional support, or advocate supporting the passage and enforcement of laws and other social measures that protect and promote the rights and interests of LGBTQ2S+ individuals.


Information on Indigenous Services 
Health and social services for Indigenous communities are often a combination of traditional healing, primary care, cultural programs, health promotion programs, resource centres, community development initiatives, and social support services. Indigenous peoples are the descendants of the original inhabitants of North America, who identify as First Nations, Métis, or Inuit.

The three First Nations communities closest in proximity to Middlesex County and the City of London are: Chippewa of the Thames First Nation (part of the Anishinaabe); Oneida Nation of the Thames (part of the Haudenosaunee); and, Munsee-Delaware Nation (part of the Leni-Lunaape).
