South Carolina will soon ban gender-affirming & out trans kids to their parents
Briefly

South Carolina passed a ban on gender-affirming care, affecting trans youth and healthcare providers. The bill mandates outing trans students to parents and prohibits puberty blockers, hormone therapy, and surgeries for minors.
Healthcare professionals in South Carolina risk state board disciplinary action or license revocation for providing gender-affirming care to minors. Minors receiving such care must stop by January 2025, despite medical associations deeming it safe and essential for trans youth wellbeing.
The Campaign for Southern Equality initiated the Southern Trans Youth Emergency Project to support trans youth. The bill allows lawsuits against professionals providing gender-affirming care until the patient turns 39.
