The overarching objectives of the modules are to provide the tools you will need to incorporate best practices in sexual and gender minority health education into your courses and clerkships, and to empower you to serve as an ambassador for sexual and gender minority health equity. You are key to this journey, which would not be possible without you. We honor the creativity you will bring to enhancing sexual and gender minority health education. We hope you will enjoy incorporating new materials and methods into your teaching and medical education leadership. And most important of all, we celebrate the fact that your actions will set a new standard for evidence-based affirming care for sexual and gender minority people.
