Federal Judge Slams DOJ’s Attempt to Seize Trans Youth Medical Records from UPMC A federal judge in Pittsburgh just handed the U.S. Department of Justice a very public, very pointed rejection, and the language she used? Not subtle. Chief U.S. District Judge Cathy Bissoon ruled Monday that the DOJ cannot force UPMC to hand over records, even anonymized ones, for minor patients who received gender-affirming care at UPMC. And in her four-page order, she didn’t mince words.

A federal judge in Pittsburgh blocked the DOJ from forcing UPMC to hand over records of trans youth who received gender-affirming care. The ruling called the government’s stance “callous” and warned of overreach.

MYTH vS FACT Gender- Affirming Care Follow us! Insta: together4transyouth Bsky: t4-ty

Demystifying Gender-Affirming Care MYTH: Kids are too young to know their gender identity and shouldn't be taken seriously. FACT: Supporting exploration helps kids develop healthy self-understanding, whatever their journey looks like. Follow us! Insta: together4transyouth Bsky: t4-ty

Understanding Gender-Affirming Care Early Awareness Children recognize gender as young as 18-24 months. Most kids label their own gender by age three, with understanding growing over time. Timing is Individual Some trans people know who they are young, while others realize it in their teens or adulthood. Coming out timing varies widely. Support Matters Fear, rejection, and stigma make coming out harder. Family love and support make a huge difference to trans people's health and wellbeing.

Demystifying Gender-Affirming Care MYTH: Puberty blockers are unsafe or not evidence-based. FACT: Decades of research and every major medical association support puberty blockers as safe. Follow us! Insta: together4transyouth Bsky: t4-ty

Understanding Gender-Affirming Care Temporary & Reversible Puberty blockers are a medicine that can temporarily pause puberty and are FulLY REvERSIBLE. Proven & Safe Approved by the FDA to treat precocious puberty in 1993, they have FEW SIDE EFFECTS and are effective. Used By Everyone Thirty years later, they remain the preferred treatment for gender affirming care and used by everyone to treat hormone imbalances, hormone-sensitive cancers, infertility, gynecological disorders and are FAR FROM DANGEROUS or experimental.

New data shows surge in trans kids’ suicides following healthcare rollbacks | Good Law Project A freedom of information request by Good Law Project has found that deaths by suicide of trans young people under 18 surged following the withdrawal of gender-affirming healthcare

The number of trans youth suicides in the UK quadrupled in 2021 following significant restrictions in access to care. The NHS tried to cover this up with a fake report that tried to hide the truth.
