TFF Director Condemns Dangerous Report

From The Transforming Families MN Facebook Page, May 1:

Transforming Families condemns the review of Medical Interventions for Trans Youth released by HHS today. This report is deeply flawed and dangerously misleading.

We at TFF know what the research and lived experiences make abundantly clear: gender affirming care saves lives. We know that trusting parents/caregivers to know their children is best practice. We see the daily proof of this in our children who flourish when supported with love, affirmation, and access to the care they need.

Despite it’s claims - this review does not reflect the consensus of major medical organizations, nor does it speak for our families and youth who it threatens to harm.

To every caregiver/parent and trans youth targeted by this review know that Transforming Families is here for you. We will continue to shine a light on the ways our children grow and thrive when they are loved, affirmed, and given access to the best practice healthcare care they deserve.

Together, our community will continue to fight fear and misinformation with joy and love as we strive for a future where all children can be safe, seen, and celebrated.
