Pediatric Grand Rounds (RECORDING) Understanding the Legal Landscape Affecting Transgender Youth and its Impact on Patient Care

This presentation is a recording of a Stanford Pediatric Grand Rounds Session.  World-renowned experts will present the latest research, practice guidelines, and treatment protocols to advance best practices in the care of pediatric patients. These online recordings will provide pediatricians and family physicians with up-to-date clinical information on a wide range of clinical issues encountered in daily pediatric practice.

In the months leading up to the 2020 election cycle, state legislatures across the United States began considering legislation that would alter legal protections for transgender youth. That has resulted in a sustained years-long effort that touched on access to sports, medical treatment for gender dysphoria, family stability, among many other topics. This session provides an overview of those efforts and the impact that legislation has had on transgender young people

2. Identify how those efforts can affect patient care, even in states that haven't considered anti-transgender legislation.
3. Discuss how participants can get involved in counteracting the negative messaging put forward by these anti-transgender bills and defeating these bills
