What losing health care and mental health services means for LGBTQ+ youth

From nationwide bans on gender-affirming care for minors to the shutdown of a suicide prevention hotline for LGBTQ+ youth, anti-LGBTQ+ rhetoric and legislation is increasingly impacting queer and transgender youth.Wednesday on Midday Edition, we hear about how anti-LGBTQ+ policies are continuing to impact young people and their families in San Diego, including access to health care and mental health services.Also, for Pride week, one program at a local LGBTQ+ theater is giving teenagers a creative means of processing the political moment and channeling it into art.Guests:Kathie Moehlig, executive director and founder, TransFamily Support ServicesLou Felipe, clinical psychologist, associate professor, University of DenverWilfred Paloma, director of education and community engagement, Diversionary TheatreGray Cohen, participant, Teen-Versionary program
