Education
Treat it Queer offers trainings and lectures for health care professionals and people interested in queer health. These can be developed on-demand and are designed specifically for your target group. We have worked with health care providers, mental health professionals, policy makers, students, and many, many more.
Further, we are happy to provide our events in multiple languages and in a variety of accessible formats.
A diversity of topics.
Our workshops can cover a variety of thematic areas such as, but not limited to:
Inclusive language and approaches to gender and sexually diverse patients in clinical practice
Easy, accessible, and fun training for health care providers that want to learn how to comfortably talk to all patients during generalist and specialist consultations.
Intersectional approaches to health
Using an intersectional lens allows us to gain a better understanding of the ways in which health inequities arise. This training offers practical and theoretical tools to explore how the dynamics of privilege and oppression related to gender, race, and class affect health justice.
Gender nonconformity in reproductive care
This lecture explores how gender variance challenges the way we think of and organize reproductive health care. We will investigate our gender-related assumptions and explore ways of creating more accessible fertility treatments and perinatal care for gender-nonconforming patients.
Gender affirming care
An overview of up-to-date, available affirming care options. Discussions of both estrogen-based and testosterone-based gender-affirming hormone therapy, as well as non-medical affirmation procedures and surgical affirmation.
