#CareTheyDeserve – June 27th 3pm ET Tweet Chat

June 20, 2018 by Suzanne Woodward

Join us for a bilingual #WellnessWed Tweet Chat on June 27th at 3pm ET. This is the FIRST all-inclusive preconception-focused Tweet chat!

  • Hashtag: #CareTheyDeserve — A #WellnessWed Chat
  • The What: Join us for a #CareTheyDeserve Tweet Chat, where we’ll be discussing how a person’s health can impact their future and the future of the next generation.
  • The WHY: June is #MensHealthMonth. #PrideWeek is also celebrated: an important time to discuss ways we can build more inclusive, welcoming healthcare conversations and environments for all people – however they identify.
  • Moderator: National Preconception Health and Health Care Initiative
  • The Panel: Gender Sexuality LGBTQ School, March of Dimes, Nacersano, Care Women Deserve, MomsRising, AMCHP, Salud America

I know this is a lot of questions; it will definitely be a quick moving chat! Lots to cover.

  1. What’s an annual wellness visit? What’s the difference in care for women, men, trans or gender non-conforming (GNC), and LGB people?
  2. How might health systems or processes improve to better appropriately screen and engage with ALL young adults?
  3. How might we share preconception health messages in a culturally relevant way so ALL are included?
  4. In our reproductive and preconception health dialogues, why is it important that we consider gender identity and sexual orientation?
  5. How can men and masculine-of-center folks be more engaged in sexual health conversations (contraception, family planning, STI screening)?
  6. How can young adults support their partner to take more responsibility in family/life planning + preconception care?
  7. Cisgender describes someone whose gender identity aligns with their sex assigned at birth. How does a cis-man’s fertility differ from a cis woman’s? How does this differ among LGBTQ identities?
  8. How can we change society and the media’s paternalistic and cisheteronormative framing of gender and familial roles in family and sexual health?
  9. How can we ensure inclusion of diverse identities when discussing sexual health & shared responsibility?
  10. How do we elevate access to reproductive healthcare for communities with historically less access to care?  (i.e. low income, undocumented, non-English speaking, etc.)?
  11. What resources are available to learn about preconception health? Where can young adults find accessible support and services that align with their diverse needs and identities?

Bonus questions:

  • What can we do to accommodate the needs of survivors of violence or trauma in providing safe/trauma-informed reproductive healthcare?
  • How can we include people of diverse body types (disabled and fat folks) in the discussion about reproductive health?
