Trans and gender diverse people are central to our mission and future here at Fenway Health. In order to best serve this portion of our patient population, we engage in continued education about trans and gender diverse people, their experiences, and their needs from medical providers. Our education program asks medical providers to complete one training, webinar, event, conference, or other form of engagement in each content area listed below each fiscal year.
Most of our providers complete many, if not all of their requirements through attending Trans Health Program meetings, Provider meetings, and/or conferences, but we know it can be difficult to always be available for live events. The content laid out below is intended to be an asynchronous option for completing any and all training medical providers are otherwise unable to complete.
