DAC Working Groups
The DAC consists of Working Group Members with particular interest/expertise to address respective Working Group domains.
Clinical Care
The Clinical Care Working Group is focused on augmenting and improving the clinical care of the LGTBQI community provided by the Yale medical system. In order to achieve this goal, we are developing a comprehensive LGBTQI Healthcare Program proposal that will engage stakeholders throughout the system. It will involve researching, documenting and implementing the most current and best practices, to support an initial implementation plan approved by the team leadership.
