The findings highlight the importance of effectively utilizing a didactic curriculum to increase exposure to LGBTQIA+ health to address knowledge gaps, increase confidence, and reduce stigma toward the LGBTQIA+ community. Schools and colleges of pharmacy should increase capacity for building elective courses that address health equity in marginalized communities through multiple modalities, including community engagement, advocacy, clinical simulation, and pharmacotherapy.
