Brandon University is hosting a public talk on March 24, 2026, in the university library to help Brandon, Manitoba, residents learn about local health services and support available for the queer and trans community. The event, called the Queer Lunch and Learn, will run from 12:40 p.m. to 1:30 p.m. to provide direct access to medical experts and health information.

Speakers at the session include Dr. Kelby Treloar from the Gender Affirming Care Clinic and Racheal Wu from the Sexuality Education Resource Centre. They will be joined by Nicole Christine from Smitten Adult Boutique to discuss sexual health resources and how to navigate local healthcare services.

The discussion takes place in the Gathering Space of the John E. Robbins Library on the Brandon University campus. According to the National Coalition for LGBTQ Health, the initiative is part of a larger effort to help community members organize for long-term health equity.

The session is intended to be a practical opportunity for students and neighbors to find the right ways to get help for specific health concerns. Attendees will be able to learn about various campus supports and where to go in the local area for inclusive care.
