Human Rights Campaign releases new resources to support LGBTQ youth
The Human Rights Campaign recently released two news resources that hospitals and health systems can use to provide better care for LGBTQ children and youth.
The resources include a guide providing best practices for clinics and hospitals seeking to promote the health and well-being of transgender and non-binary youth through the creation of multidisciplinary care clinics.
The second resource aids children’s hospitals’ efforts to foster LGBTQ inclusion for their patients, the families of patients and employees.
