According to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta is no longer offering gender-affirming care to transgender children, as the Trump administration increases pressure on institutions to halt the practice.
Parents of transgender children receiving care at Children’s reportedly began receiving messages last week informing them that the nonprofit health system will no longer provide these treatments.
In a statement, Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta said, “Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta is fully compliant with all statutory provisions enacted in 2023 by Georgia Senate Bill 140 and is taking the necessary steps to comply with applicable federal laws. We are closely monitoring recent federal government activity, including recent executive orders, to maintain full compliance.”
