LGBTQ+ people are more vulnerable to health risks and face discrimination in healthcare.

LGBTQ+ people and those living with HIV face discrimination in the provision of health care services, and are especially vulnerable to breaches of confidentiality in medical settings, and to violations of their personal autonomy regarding reproductive decisions, sexual health, gender expression, transition-related care, HIV care and other matters.

Many are unable to find services in their area, encounter discrimination or refusals of service, or delay or forego care because of concerns of mistreatment.

Many states are working to pass laws to protect LGBTQ+ people, but we are also seeing proposed rules and bills that target LGBTQ+ (specifically Transgender) people. These bills could override local protections and may allow use of religion to discriminate.

Equal Footing LLC and Transformation Journeys Worldwide, invite you to join us, along with Georgia Equality and Lambda Legal, for the second of a 3-part series focusing on laws and policies currently impacting your company, your LGBTQ+ employees (and their families) and your communities.

We are delighted to announce Kaiser Permanente will be sponsoring this event where
representatives from Georgia Equality and Lambda Legal will provide the following takeaways for attendees:

• Greater insight into issues that impact LGBTQ+ employees
• Broader knowledge that will enable quality discussions within organizations
• Information that will support more informed business decisions
• Awareness of action steps that can be taken by your organization and individual employees
• A better understanding of Georgia Equality and Lambda Legal and their critical role in the
LGBTQ+ community
• Availability of additional educational resources

Leaders and employees from a wide range of industries are invited to attend at no charge.
