• LGBT Health Certificate
  The LGBT Center is proud to offer an annual series of cutting-edge trainings for students, faculty, and staff in medicine, dentistry, public health, and nursing at UofL. These sessions are also open to community providers and the public. Participants completing at least 5 hours of training will earn a Certificate in LGBT Health. To date, over 200 students, faculty, staff and community members have completed this program and hundreds of others have attended at least one session.

A panel of LGBT people with diverse identities will share coming out experiences and experiences in health care, and attendees can ask questions to the panel.
  This event is open to any UofL employee.
