About this event
The Vanderbilt Program for LGBTQ Health is proud to announce our third Southern LGBTQ Health Symposium! This event is critical to achieving greater health equity for sexual and gender minorities and building structural understanding of the unique health disparities that LGBTQ people face. This event is open to providers, trainees, and community members, particularly those throughout the southeastern United States.
This year, the Symposium will consist of five online presentations, each taking place on Thursdays at noon CDT on Zoom. 7.5 hours of CME /CE Credit are available for the event (1.5 hours per lecture). Those wishing to enroll for CME/CE credit MUST purchase the $75 tickets. Participants must attend the live virtual sessions to receive credit. Those not seeking CME credit may participate for free.
