KevinMD: Conferences’ duty of care in the face of discriminatory health policy


A guest blog post from Peggy Lillis Foundation Executive Director, Christian John Lillis, has been featured on notable healthcare blog KevinMD. The piece, “Conferences’ duty of care in the face of discriminatory health policy,” touches on the importance of health care conferences standing with all patients by boycotting increasingly hostile states.

“States that outlaw gender-affirming care and abortions and allow bigoted clinicians to refuse care are actively harming their residents and visitors. Associations and societies that produce health care conferences must stand with all patients by boycotting these increasingly hostile states. States that forbid evidence-based care for women and LGBTQ people do not deserve our business. And politicians who withhold health care from marginalized communities deserve our scorn.”
