An AARP and OUTWORDS panel discussion focused on health equity for LGBTQ+ elders, with a particular emphasis on the unique challenges faced by our most vulnerable community members. As these populations often experience heightened health challenges due to intersecting identities and systemic discrimination, our panel of experts will explore strategies to create more inclusive healthcare environments, address disparities, and ensure access to compassionate, culturally competent care.

Moderator: Dr. Jesse Ehrenfeld, president of the American Medical Association

Panelists: Trans health advocate Earline Budd and Cassandra Burton, Senior Research Advisor at AARP
