Concerns about transgender health care were a major topic Monday afternoon at UW-Stout’s virtual campus forum held to discuss the university’s upcoming partnership with Prevea Health.
UW-Stout announced in September that Prevea will provide health care for its students, replacing the university’s Student Health Services (SHS). The new partnership, scheduled to begin on Jan. 1, 2022, has drawn a range of reactions on campus.
In a recent e-newsletter to students, the university said Monday’s forum would be an opportunity for the campus community to learn about the partnership, understand “what it means to your health and wellness offerings” and ask questions about the change.
