Transgender Health & Medical-Legal Partnerships (2024). Resource Type: Publication. Description: In 2018, we published our fact sheet, Transgender Health & Medical-Legal Partnerships. Though the approach to using medical-legal partnerships to meet the needs of transgender and gender diverse (TGD) people remains a core tool for addressing the social determinants of health for this population, the legal and legislative landscape has changed drastically in recent years. In addition to navigating insurance coverage; medical decision-making; legal name and gender marker changes; and discrimination in education, employment, housing/shelter, and public accommodations; TGD people now face stepped-up efforts to restrict their access to health care more broadly, including denial of gender-affirming care, and restrictions on accessing public spaces and speech. There have been more than 500 bills introduced in states targeting TGD people. This follows a trend of increasing anti-trans laws in recent years. Bills banning bathroom use by TGD people; banning participation in youth sports; restricting discussion of sexuality, gender, and identity in public education; threats to take custody of TGD youth from affirming families; and limiting gender-affirming care for youth and adults create a dangerous environment for TGD people in many areas of the United States. Criminalization of TGD lives – and of the actions of their providers and caregivers – brings serious adverse consequences to the health and safety of TGD people. More Details...
