Dear Friends,
We have an encouraging update for you from the frontlines of the fight to protect children and families from radical gender ideology.
An organization called the World Professional Association of Transgender Health (WPATH) has provided cover for healthcare professionals across the world by promulgating “standards of care” for children struggling with gender dysphoria. These so-called “standards” encouraged doctors to attempt to “transition” children from one sex to another (something that is impossible) as early as possible. They also allow doctors to hide behind the justification that they were simply following the “standard of care.”
The fatal flaw in WPATH’s perverse plan: it’s not backed by science.
Recently leaked internal WPATH files revealed that the organization engages in experimental, blatantly harmful treatments that violate the Hippocratic Oath and contradict their own public statements claiming their standards of care are based in evidence and science. Those public statements have allowed these barbaric procedures to be covered by insurance in hospitals across the world.
FPA has worked successfully in 21 states to protect these vulnerable children from harmful and irreversible procedures done in the name of transgender ideology.
This important leak discredits one of the world’s leading transgender activist organizations and takes us one important step further to ensuring children struggling with gender dysphoria are protected everywhere.
Your support has made this possible, and we ask that you would continue that partnership.
Every day approximately 115 children in the United States are diagnosed with gender dysphoria. WPATH “standards” would send them down a path of barbaric, experimental “medicine.” You can help us to push back against deceptive practices by financially supporting our ongoing work to enact Help Not Harm in even more states.
Together, we will ensure children are not preyed upon because they are confused about who God made them to be. We will ensure they receive real help, not harm.
For our kids,
Joseph Kohm
Director, Public Policy
