Abstract:
Gender minority children and adolescents present to a wide variety of health professionals for gender-related care and other care. However,few professionals may be prepared to meet their needs. Unprepared clinicians risk developing insufficient therapeutic rapport, missing salient information, and inadvertently contributing to risk. In this article the authors outline ways to address these gaps at all training levels to meet the needs of gender minority children and adolescents. They provide practical resources for colleagues interested in expanding education opportunities in their own community. In the end, competency in gender minority health should improve access to care for these youths.
