bioghist
{"value"=>"<p>The Women's Education Services (WES) division of GMHC was created in 1996 and was an expansion of existing programs for women at GMHC. WES grew from the Lesbian AIDS Project, which became a part of WES but remained a distinct program. WES promoted existing GMHC programs for women; adapted programs aimed at heterosexual couples to the needs of lesbian, bisexual, and transgendered women; developed brochures and safe sex kits for women; and established support groups focusing on parenting and relationships.</p>"}
scopecontent
{"value"=>"<p>This series contains correspondence, memoranda, and other material from the Women's Education Services division of GMHC and is divided into two sections: Administrative Files and the Lesbian AIDS Project (LAP). LAP was created to conduct outreach to HIV positive lesbians, make them feel welcome at GMHC, and provide education and other services. Included in the Administrative Files are files on the creation of brochures for WES, the development of Women's Open Houses held at GMHC, and workshops for women. The LAP section contains manuals for workshops and memoranda on <span class=\"title\">LAP Notes</span>, the program's quarterly national newsletter.</p>"}
