Description
Primary care and developmental behavioral pediatric providers are often the first professionals with whom young gender nonconforming children and their families discuss their concerns about their emerging gender identity. It is important, therefore, that providers be knowledgeable about the conflicts and choices that are typical of these children and their families so that they are better able to guide them appropriately.Back to Session: Poster Symposium 3C: Clinical Service, Epidemiology, Early Intervention
