#IAHW2022 is an opportunity for everyone to get involved in improving #adolescenthealth. People of all ages and backgrounds are welcome to participate.
Why not... 🤔

No child should experience discrimination or the threat of discrimination. Our research & clinical work tell us that trans & gender diverse children & adolescents are some of the most vulnerable in our community.
