Gender Affirming Care

WAMC's Sajina Shrestha has been looking into the impact of federal policy on members of the New York trans community. And she recently sat down with divina cordeiro from The Shoestring news outlet in Western Massachusetts, who has been undertaking similar reporting.

Two pieces of proposed legislation before the New York State Legislature aimed at expanding and protecting access to gender-affirming care did not receive a vote this legislative session. As WAMC's Sajina Shrestha reports, some who access that care are worried about the inaction amid federal restrictions.
