Details/DownloadDigital learning is a driving force in how healthcare education is administered, customized, and re-imagined. For this reason, LGBT HealthLink, a program of CenterLink, offers an alternative to a traditional in-person conference every year. The 2018 E-Summit presents outstanding topics to everyone interested in working toward the goal of LGBT health equity.
This three-day E-Summit provided evidence-based information and content via webinar from a myriad of topics under the following tracks:
This year our areas of focus were:
LGBT Community Centers and Community-based Organizations
Public Health Practitioners and Departments of Health
Health Care Systems and Health Care Providers
Join LGBT HealthLink and experts from around the country to learn in an inclusive environment of cultural understanding.
Collecting and disseminating data is an important function of the work of many departments of health (DOH). In this session we review some SOGI question options, and hear from DOH staff about their successes and obstacles collecting and disseminating SOGI data.

Details/DownloadLesbian, bisexual, and queer women as well as transgender men and non-binary people who were assigned female at birth are less likely to be screened for cervical cancer than their heterosexual, cisgender counterparts. This presentation discusses some of the barriers that prevent sexual and gender minority individuals who are assigned female at birth from taking care of their cervical health. This presentation also discusses some steps to take to make "traditional woman-only" spaces more LGBT affirming and welcoming as well as alternative options for cervical Pap tests, such as self-sampling kits.
