- Beyond the Binary: An Innovative Educational Workshop Addressing the Health of Non-Binary and Gender Non-Conforming People
In 2023, University of Rochester Center for Community Practice (URCCP) launched a new educational workshop for health and human service workers called Affirming Services for Non-Binary and Gender Non-Conforming (NBGNC) Clients. This innovative workshop takes a deep dive into NBGNC identities and health, and leads participants to identify actionable steps to improve delivery and cultural responsiveness of sexual health services, syncing the disciplines of LBGTQ health, HIV prevention, STIs, and harm reduction. This session will summarize key workshop content, the development process involving input from people with lived experience, and lessons learned for future educational programs.
