Dear Students,

We invite you to our next student lunch event, taking place this Wednesday, October 11 during Dean's Hour: Fighting Stigma and Discrimination: Access To Health Care in the LGBTQ Community.

Panelists will discuss the discrimination faced by the LGBTQ community and their families that results in barriers to accessing health care -- and the current activism to promote health equity and demand LGBTQ healthcare as a human right. Please see more information in the invitation attached and below.

The event is co-sponsored with the Public Policy Program and the LGBT Social Science and Public Policy Center. Lunch will be served!

1:15-2:45 pm
Roosevelt House, 47-49 East 65th St.

Speakers:


*         Kimberleigh Smith, Senior Director of Community Health Planning and Policy, Callen-Lorde, a global leader in LGBTQ healthcare as a human right

*         Kalvin Leveille, Field Director/Project Coordinator at Columbia University's Mailman School of Public Health

*         Elizabethe Payne (moderator), Interim Director, LGBT Social Science and Public Policy Center at Roosevelt House; Distinguished Lecturer, Hunter College, CUNY

Members of the LGBTQ community often face challenges and barriers to accessing health services and, as a result of on-going issues of stigma and discrimination, can experience worse health outcomes. Join us for a discussion on unique health challenges and existing disparities that LGBTQ individuals encounter especially those who are people of color. The speakers will discuss current activism and changes within the legal and policy landscape to bring greater health equity to LGBTQ individuals and their families as well as the challenges that the community now faces in the more polarized current political climate.

*LUNCH WILL BE SERVED!*
