Growing up transgender in Dane County, families welcome protections

When Dan began exploring his identity, he shared with his mother and the pair began seeking care at UW Health’s Gender Clinic.  

April is part of a support group for parents of transgender children. The family attends group therapy. Miley receives gender-affirming care at UW Health’s PATH Clinic for Pediatric Gender Identity and the family recently switched churches so that their spiritual community was more welcoming of Miley.
