WHAT IS THE NEPA TRANS HEALTH CONFERENCE?
Our Mission and Goal
The NEPA Trans Health Conference was conceived in 2012 as an educational forum for Northeastern Pennsylvania (NEPA) area health care professionals, their staffs, educators, and others to learn from the transgender community and from those who treat and support them about the necessary care, respect, and understanding of people who are transgender.
The primary goal of the conference is to overcome provider knowledge gaps and to reduce the psychological harm and medical neglect that is done to transgender people when their lived experience and the professional consensus that directs their care and treatment is not well understood by care providers and others.
