All submissions will go through a peer-reviewed process overseen by the CAFP Education Committee. Submissions may be considered for either conference unless so noted.

Through its educational events, CAFP strives to provide high-quality education developed by family physicians for family physicians. In these efforts, CAFP works to reflect and raise up the diverse voices that make up family medicine and the communities in which we serve. The following principles reflect our commitment to these efforts and should be seen as an educational opportunity for all speakers and attendees to work together to make our learning more inclusive and equitable to promote the health of all Coloradoans. We ask all of our presenters to:

• Avoid heteronormativity – The assumption that all individuals are heterosexual (and that anything else is abnormal)
• Use patient/person/community/culture- centered language
• Avoid using race as a proxy for biology or genetics; instead, use the experience of racism when describing risk factors for disease
• Highlight the impact(s) of systems/structures when possible
• We highly encourage you to use your personal pronouns on your introduction slide
