Project HEALTH: Harnessing Education, Advocacy & Leadership for Transgender Health

Description:

In partnership with the Transgender Law Center, a neighborhood clinic with well-established services for transgender people will grow a network of health professionals who provide culturally sensitive and medically competent care, empower community representatives to advocate for better health care and help ensure the implementation of new state policy that guarantees public and private coverage for transgender individuals. The project will establish a formal clinical rotation in transgender health for medical students and offer training for staff at selected clinics and for physician assistant and nursing students.
