PT Proud is the LGBTQ+ Committee under the Global Health Special Interest Group of the Health Policy & Administration Section of the American Physical Therapy Association. We are an LGBTQ+ advocacy group supporting equity, education, and community for LGBTQ+ patients and practitioners.
The purpose of the LGBTQ+ committee is to unite PTs, PTAs, and students towards a common goal of affecting change in the profession of physical therapy through advocacy, policy, and promotion of competency education. We aim to address health disparities and positively affect the health care experience of LGBTQ patients, students, and clinicians.
