Gender Affirming Care. Just what is that? Its a misleading term.

You can read the full report here:



SUMMARY-

"The Human Rights Campaign (HRC), along with its charity branch, the HumanRights Campaign Foundation, is an LGBTQ+ advocacy organization that takes extreme positions on pediatric sex trait modifications, advocating full force for so-called “gender-affirming care” for minors. It has successfully infiltrated pediatric hospitals through its Healthcare Equality Index (HEI), a scorecard for measuring hospitals’ compliance with various tenets of gender ideology. "

"Forty-one children’s hospitals, in addition to several pediatric facilities embedded in larger health systems, have voluntarily sought the HRC’s approval through participation in the 2024 HEI, fulfilling criteria that entrenched gender ideology throughout their institutions. Hospitals that care for children should neither promote a political ideology nor take cues from the HRC on the care of children with gender dysphoria."

"Given the increased public awareness of the dangers of pediatric gender transition, directing the public’s attention to the HEI should pressure children’s hospitals, at a minimum, to disassociate from the HRC and reverse the policies and initiatives they implemented to achieve their HEI score."

"It’s time for hospitals to sever ties with the HRC and the harmful ideology it evangelizes.

Editor’s note: Hospital policies and practices regarding pediatric gender medicine are constantly changing and evolving. The information contained in this report is current as of August 6, 2025."

 
Oh no. People are getting help with their medical needs.

From the organization that put this out:

"Do No Harm seeks to highlight and counteract divisive trends in medicine, such as “Diversity, Equity and Inclusion” and youth-focused gender ideology."

You got knocked out of the fishing tournament early, didn't you?

Hospitals are closing because of DOGE. Harm.
