Understanding the Role of Resilience in Gender and Sexual Minority Communities

Understanding the Role of Resilience in Gender and Sexual Minority Communities

Thursday, September 17, 2020

2:15 pm ET /  1:15 pm CT / 11:15 am PT

 

While it is adequately documented that Gender and Sexual Minority individuals have faced lifelong stigma, discrimination, and other experiences that may direct to adverse psycho-social outcomes, an emerging program of study suggests resilience can be a buffer against the impact of these stressors. This webinar will highlight how universal health approaches to health and well-being have historically been rooted in a deficits based model and the recent shift in emphasis to examine strengths-based perspectives in GSM communities, especially in older HIV+ same-sex attracted men.

Join this free, 60-minute webinar where we will discuss:

  • using a resiliency based approach to health disparities
  • strengths of the gender and sexual minority community in coping with stigma and discrimination

Kristen D. Krause, PhD, MPH (she/her/hers), is an adjunct faculty member at the Rutgers University Academy of Public Health (SPH) and the Deputy Direc
