Pride month got off to a great start this year as we welcomed our 2021 summer interns, Jacob Zimmerman and Julia Grey! Jacob and Julia both applied for our 2020 internship program, but due to the COVID-19 pandemic, they were unable to join us last year. Later in the month, Melvin Lewis was added to our crew.

February is Black History Month, and we want to celebrate by highlighting the Black LGBTQ figures in history that are too often over-looked. From Miss Major to Pauli Murray to Bayard Rustin, we encourage you to learn more about the Black LGBTQ individuals who have shaped our history.

Once again, we have the good fortune to host a spectacular team of summer interns who are engaged in a variety of research and capacity-building activities for the Vanderbilt Program for LGBTQ Health.

Magda Houlberg, M.D., Chief Clinical Director of Howard Brown Health Center in Chicago, will deliver LGBTQ Health Grand Rounds at noon on Tuesday, Jan. 23 in 202 Light Hall. Houlberg will discuss hormone therapy management for transgender patients. Lunch will be available for the first 50 people who register here.
