13. The Overturn of Roe vs. Wade 2 of 4: Impact on the Transgender Community

The overturning of Roe v Wade affects a wide variety of people in America, including transgender and gender non-conforming individuals. In this hyper-polarized political landscape, transgender and gender non-conforming individuals are increasingly subjected to unfair scrutiny.  In episode two of the Roe v. Wade series, UConn School of Pharmacy student Athena Guitierrez, and UConn School of Medicine students Conor McCarthy and Samhita Gurrala interview  Dr. Christine Rodriguez, senior lecturer from the Yale School of Nursing. Dr. Rodriquez helps shed light on the true extent of the issues this community faces and shares ways that we can support these individuals as healthcare providers.
