Past OutTalks
Addressing LGBTQ+ Disparities in Medical Education
In this session, we will discuss the perspectives of medical students, administrative staff, and hear from the American Medical Association (AMA) and Medical Student Pride Alliance (MSPA) to find concrete solutions for LGBTQ+ disparities. Identifying avenues that can decrease these poor social and healthcare encounters may lead to better health outcomes for a substantial number of LGBTQ+ people.
The State of LGBTQ+ Healthcare in Indiana
This talk features former Indiana Health Commissioner and Indiana Gubernatorial Candidate, Dr. Woody Myers in conversation with Senator J.D. Ford, Indiana’s 8th Congressional District candidate, Thomasina Marsili, and President of OutCare Health, Dr. Dustin Nowaskie. The talk will focus on the state of LGBTQ+ healthcare in Indiana with guests from community partner organizations across the state. OutCare does not support or endorse any candidate for political office.
The Importance of Mentoring in the LGBTQ+ Community
As LGBTQ+ individuals meet life’s transitions and milestones, they are often faced with exploring how to integrate their LGBTQ+ identity into various new phases in life. No matter the age, seeking and being a mentor to a member of the LBGTQ+ community goes a long way. In this OutTalk, we heard from representatives of various groups and organizations who have been mentoring and coaching in the community for decades.
