The Children's Hospital of Los Angeles is shutting down its trans healthcare program due to legal and financial risks amplified by current political pressures, specifically referencing Donald Trump's administration. As of July 22, the Center for Transyouth Health and Development will cease operations after informing its 3,000 patients. Hospital executives highlighted the difficulty of this decision and its implications for their mission, indicating a need to give patients time to transition to new care providers amid these challenges.
"There is no doubt that this is a painful and significant change to our organisation and a challenge to CHLA's mission, vision, and values."
"Our main goal is to help give patient families adequate time to plan for moving care to providers less impacted by the legal and financial pressures."
