ALT Hear from 2025 Attendees “I enjoyed hearing from providers from different states and learning more about how policy and location affected their practice.” “It was refreshing to hear talks on the social/political context of abortion and reproductive healthcare. I think it is difficult to find time to think about this aspect of healthcare in medical school, when I am so focused on learning the physiology and medical aspects of care.” “I really enjoyed the scope of the material that we were shown, as well as the opportunity for hands-on training. I also appreciated that there was information on residency planning and different methods of applying for both OB-GYN and family medicine.” “I truly enjoyed the provider panel discussion at the end of the conference. I also loved the session on abortion later in pregnancy - it did a flawless job of supporting me in critically appraising my mental template on abortion later in pregnancy and equipped me with a far more accurate view!”

ALT Getting tested is self-care. Your sexual health deserves a check-in even if you have no symptoms.
ALT Sexual health is healthcare and you have options for where you can get tested, so find what works best for you: Ask your primary care provider or OB-GYN about STI testing. Many local clinics offer affordable testing. STI testing and treatment are available at Planned Parenthood. At-home tests can offer more privacy and flexibility. Some pharmacies offer STI testing or at-home testing kits.
