Sick Wolf, Maniac Martyrs and the Meat Sluts take over Thee Parkside on Saturday, Dec. 5th starting @ 3 p.m.
This is a benefit show for the Lyon Martin Health Services.
Lyon-Martin Health Services was founded in 1979 by a group of medical providers and health activists as clinic for lesbians who lacked access to nonjudgmental, affordable health care. Named after Phyllis Lyon and Del Martin, feminists and well-known LGBTQ civil rights activists, the clinic soon became a model for culturally sensitive community-based health care. Since 1993, Lyon-Martin also has provided case management and primary healthcare in programs specifically designed for very low-income and uninsured women with HIV. In 2007, the organization added sliding-scale mental health services for our patients. Today, Lyon-Martin provides primary and preventive healthcare services to around 2000 patients. Currently, 39% of our patients are people of color; 14% are transgender and 41% self-identify as lesbian or bisexual; 84% live below 200% of the federal poverty level and 14% are homeless. Fifty-eight percent of our patents' appointments address mental health needs.
This show is all ages and is going to rock your socks off.
There will be food, drink, and good times had by all.
Don't miss this one. Your presence is all that is needed to support a GREAT cause!!!
