Course Description
The Howard University MAAETC Regional Partner is happy to have one of the co-authors of a popular LGBTQIA+ Resource "The Flying Gender Unicorn" discuss the intent and purpose of this resource with healthcare professionals serving in the MidAtlantic Region. Using various activities, tools, and content for discussion, participants will unpack the various elements of gender including but not limited to identity, expression, assignment, and biology. Assumptions and stereotypes will be challenged through data and narrative. Best practices will be shared for successfully interacting with and affirming trans, nonbinary, gender nonconforming, and intersex populations and other LGBTQIA+ communities.
