The GLHV Clearinghouse aims to provide accessible and up-to-date health information and resources based on the social model of health as outlined in the Victorian GLBTI Health and Wellbeing Action Plan (click to view a pdf).
Our definition of health comes from the World Health Organization :
"Health is a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity."
This Clearinghouse is still being developed to incorporate the highest level of accessibility and 'usability' standards. Information is constantly being added and edited.
