The Trans Experience: Pride in Our Health
Transgender and gender-diverse people seek preventive health care and health screenings less often than do other people due to a variety of factors including lack of insurance coverage, being refused care, difficulty finding a health care provider with expertise in transgender care or fear of discrimination in a health care setting. This webinar, presented at the HAHSTA Ryan White Case Management Operating Committee Quarterly Training, will address the need for accurate comprehensive data on transgender health, as well as how to provide specialized, culturally competent care to transgender individuals in a non-stigmatizing environment.
