Focusing on LGBTQ+ Health Considerations

The LGBTQ+ Health Care Conference is a three-day event designed for healthcare professionals, learners, researchers, patients, community organizations and interested community members who seek to understand the unique health considerations and barriers to health care in the LGBTQ+ population.

Attendees will learn how to provide respectful, patient-centered, culturally competent health care by developing skills to establish rapport, recognize barriers to medical care, offer LGBTQ+ patients competent primary care and/or referrals to such care and identify the unique health risks in the LGBTQ+ population.

Topics will include supporting gender diverse youth; community advocacy; navigating insurance and the law; supporting families of gender diverse people; HIV/STI risk reduction; inclusive sexual health practices; family building in the LGBTQ+ community; minority stress; bisexual health; identity development; spiritual care; introduction to gender-affirming hormone treatments; gender-affirming surgery topics; preventing homelessness and more!
