Description: Asking personal demographic questions, specifically around sexual orientation, gender identity, and race/ethnicity, can be challenging. However, collecting this information from our patients/clients is vital to inform an equitable distribution of health resources in our communities. This webinar focused on the demographic questions asked on the Report of Verified Case of Tuberculosis (RVCT) and provided strategies for how to become more comfortable asking these and other sensitive questions during interviews.
