Event Date: Saturday, March 22 from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.
The Healthcare, Education, Advocacy, Leaders (HEAL) Sexual Health Conference aims to bring awareness to and encourage sexual health scientific research, community engagement, and discussion. More specifically, it highlights the work of healthcare, education, and advocacy leaders in our Michigan community and beyond. The conference will be held on Saturday, March 22nd at the Michigan State University Union from 10 am to 6 pm. You can learn more on our website here and follow us on Instagram here!
This year’s focus, “Embracing Diversity, Rewriting Narratives,” is sharper, targeting the intersectional realities that shape individuals’ experiences and the need to rewrite narratives that have long excluded or misrepresented marginalized voices. We are not just discussing sexual health in general terms; we are diving into the complexities of identity, culture, and experience, ensuring that every voice is heard and every story is valued.
The poster presentation section provides an excellent platform for you to showcase your latest findings, engage with fellow professionals, foster community engagement, and contribute to the overall dialogue surrounding sexual health. Your project does NOT need to be completed to apply, and we would love to have you participate. There are monetary honorariums associated with the conference, with the top posters in each section (Healthcare, Advocacy, and Education) receiving prizes!

Please fill out your registration by 11:59 PM ET on Friday, March 1st. Abstract guidelines and submission instructions can be found here.
