PBH 374 Sexual and Gender Minority Health Disparities


Historically, lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) individuals have often been perceived in stereotyped, one-dimensional ways. Over the past few decades, public health practitioners have become increasingly aware that LGBT persons constitute sexual and gender minorities who have unique health care needs. Students will examine these needs at an individual, community, and societal level, and learn more about political, medical and social issues relevant to these communities, including issues specific to trans and gender-non-conforming communities.
