UNIVERSITY OF MARYLAND SCHOOL OF MEDICINE
LGBTQ+ HEALTH INTEREST GROUP (SOM-Q)
a chapter of the Medical Student Pride Alliance
The LGBTQ Health interest group is a group for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, questioning/queer individuals, and their allies at the University of Maryland School of Medicine. We are dedicated to maintaining and developing an even more accepting environment for diversity at the University of Maryland, and in Baltimore such that all people, queer or otherwise, are comfortable expressing their true, authentic selves.
We believe that LGBTQ individuals enhance the University of Maryland community in a unique way. Our goal is to provide a welcoming environment for LGBTQ students and faculty, their loved ones, and allies. We sponsor educational and social events focused on LGBTQ subjects for all interested parties and engage in open dialogue with other advocates and advocate groups in UMB, Baltimore, and beyond. Our most recent efforts have expanded the medical school curriculum to emphasize the critical needs of this unique population and enhance LGBTQ+ health education for future physicians.
