The conference was founded in 2012 by the Institute for Sexual and Gender Minority Health and Wellbeing (ISGMH) at Northwestern University and Center on Halsted, the largest LGBTQ community center in the Midwest. In 2019, Emory University joined the conference as a partner. After the success of the 2022 conference in Chicago with over 430 attendees, we look forward to an even bigger conference in August 2024.
