Part One: Gender Affirming Care

from Through the Eyes of a Therapist · host Cristal Martinez Acosta, LPC, NCC

In this two part series, 2 therapists explore what is happening in Texas with Governor Greg Abbott and Trans Youth.  In a recent upheaval on the Texas Capitol, Texas Governor and Texas Attorney General stated their opinion that offering trans affirming care should be considered child abuse and that the Texas Department of Family and Protective Services (AKA, CPS) should investigate those who are allowing the trans youth in their care to access and receive these services.   This obviously caused panic and trauma amongst the trans community–their caregivers and providers who protect and serve them.   Implications of denying this care stretch far and deep.   Let’s discuss!   And if you want to make a quick and meaningful difference please visit www.borderlandrainbow.org and click DONATE to securely donate through PayPal.
