Opportunities and Barriers to Transgender & Nonbinary Healthcare Equity and Inclusion Excellence
Despite advances in gender-affirming care and growing acceptance of gender diversity, transgender and nonbinary (TNB) people continue to experience barriers to inclusive care, such as stigma and social determinants of health. This webinar will familiarize Washington, DC providers with culturally-responsive and equitable healthcare for TNB patients. The faculty will review best practices for improved health outcomes among TNB people in order to reduce health disparities that affect the transgender population. Implementation of these practices will also contribute to higher retention in care at your organization.
This course is jointly provided by Postgraduate Institute for Medicine and HealthHIV.
