Abstract:
Transgender and gender diverse (TGD) individuals face discrimination and experience disparate healthcare, and cancer care, in particular. Our team has developed four initiatives to start to mitigate the disparities facing TGD individuals, including (1) improving identification of TGD individuals with cancer in oncology clinics, (2) identifying rates and predictors of cancer screening among TGD individuals, (3) building a TGD patient-centric oncology clinic, and (4) developing prospective research that is dedicated to addressing the needs of TGD Individuals with cancer. Clinician-focused educational initiatives are integral aspects of this work to improve cancer care for TGD individuals.
