The National LGBTQ Health Conference is an interdisciplinary translational research conference bringing together scientists, public health professionals, and healthcare providers to discuss issues affecting the health and wellbeing of the LGBTQ community. The largest scientific gathering of its kind in the United States, the conference also fosters professional development and provides networking opportunities. The conference is held every two years and its location alternates between Chicago and Atlanta. The 2021 conference was held virtually.

The conference was founded in 2012 by the Impact Institute at Northwestern University and Center on Halsted. In 2019, Emory University joined the conference as a partner.
