Community Outreach & Partnerships

Sexuality Matters

Sexuality Matters is a 90-minute workshop for physicians, social workers, healthcare providers, nurse practitioners, psychiatrists, and medical students to increase their cultural competency in the care and treatment of LGBT identified clients. This project ensures that LGBT health-related services are delivered in a sensitive manner. Continuing Medical Education (CME) credits are offered.

The success of Sexuality Matters has led to the development of additional trainings such as transgender awareness training for front-line/reception staff. Sexuality Matters is currently being adapted for educators, to train staff on how to address the concerns of LGBT youth and develop an environment of non-discrimination.

The Bronx Community Pride Center is currently seeking an intern to help update and adapt Sexuality Matters for multiple settings. To view the job description, click here:
