Several experienced professionals will comment on the specific challenges that migrant populations face when they attempt to meet sexual and reproductive health needs. Different NYC-based organizations will present their work on the interaction between migration and sexual and reproductive health, both in the US and abroad. This is an excellent opportunity for our members to hear insight on the unique experiences of particularly vulnerable populations, get to know best practices in the field and inquire about their possible roles as future leaders in the public health sector.
