Since its inception in 1981, GLMA's Annual Conference on LGBTQ+ Health has served as the premier scientific conference shaping the future of LGBTQ+ health care, where health professionals come together to share innovative breakthroughs and interventions, as well as the latest research on LGBTQ+ health. The conference is open to health care providers of all disciplines, researchers, academics, health administrators, policy experts, advocates, and all LGBTQ+ health supporters.
We are looking forward to joining together for
GLMA's 43rd Annual Conference on LGBTQ+ Health this year!
The conference will take place in Minneapolis, Minnesota from October 9-11, 2025.

Students, trainees, and members of historically-excluded groups (including but not limited to BIPOC, Intersex, disabled, and Indigenous and Two-Spirit individuals) are eligible for scholarships to help cover the costs of registration for the 43rd Annual Conference on LGBTQ+ Health.
