Join the Chamber for our LGBTQ+ healthcare breakfast. Drs Andrew Cronyn and Ravi Grivois-Shah are arguably two of the most LGBTQ+ Inclusive healthcare providers in the state. They’ll be joining us for breakfast to teach us about what that even really means: what does basic-level inclusivity look like, and what about advanced level inclusivity? Why does it matter, what are the disparities, and what can we do? They are both passionately involved in advocating for the LGBTQ youth community and are looking forward to answering any questions we might have.
