Nearly 3,000 patients have been forced to find gender-affirming care elsewhere after the Children&rsquo;s Hospital Los Angeles closed their LA Center for Trans Youth Health and Development in July. The closure comes amid threats of cuts to federal funding for providers of gender affirming-care and other attempts to restrict LGBTQ rights nationwide. LAist producer Kevin Tidmarsh joins us to talk about what&rsquo;s next for transgender healthcare in this political moment and how families with trans kids will find care and support now.
