#1 - 4 Lessons - LGBTQ & Healthcare Awareness

Course overview

The LGBTQ community is an all-inclusive movement for the equal rights for every person regardless of sexual orientation or gender identity. The history behind this struggle has been cultivated over several decades of harassment and discrimination to a time of acceptance, inclusivity, and knowledge about the issues. In this acupuncture continuing education course, the acupuncture practitioner will explore important concepts that are not mutually exclusive, including sexual orientation, sex, chromosomal variations, gender identity, and more. Furthermore, the acupuncturist will understand how to be more culturally aware and competent when providing care to individuals who identify with the LGBTQ community.
