Description
Compass invites you to attend the First Annual Women’s Health Conference!
Lesbian, Bisexual, and Transgender (LBT) women can be at greater risk for certain health disparities, but often face significant barriers to addressing them. The first step to overcoming these barriers is through education. This conference is designed to address the unique and diverse needs of women in our community. A free box lunch will be provided to those who register in advance.
