Willy Wilkinson, MPH is an award-winning, mixed heritage, Asian American, transgender writer, public health consultant, cultural competency trainer, and spoken word performer. He is author of the Lambda Literary-award winning book “Born on the Edge of Race and Gender: A Voice for Cultural Competency,” which explores the ambiguities and complexities of mixed, trans and disability experience within a cultural competency framework. Reading excerpts from his writing, Wilkinson used these passages as a jumping off point for an engaging discussion about culturally competent approaches to social interactions, community membership, classification systems and services.
