[Lunch Provided] Join us for a fireside chat between SOM's very own embedded Counselor, Margaret Milardo-Ward, and OOO! Many of us already know (and love) Margaret, and this conversation is a chance to delve a bit deeper into how queerness and Pride intersect with her work and life. This event is an opportunity for all SOM students (allies and OOO members alike) to hear how LGBTQ+ issues intersect with school, work, family, and of course, mental health - topics that affect us all!

Margaret Milardo-Ward, LCSW-S (she/her) grew up in CT and spent the last 17 years in Austin, Texas. She worked in crisis outreach before starting her own private practice, and holds a Bachelor's Degree from Assumption University and a Master's Degree in Clinical and Medical Social Work from the University of Texas at Austin. Margaret moved from TX to CT in 2023 to start her role as SOM's first-ever embedded counselor. She lives in Clinton with her wife and 3-year-old son.
