Supportive family environments and access to gender-affirming care are critical for the mental health of transgender youth. This excellent piece in The Conversation U.S. by Sam and Travis Campbell highlights important new research showing why. theconversation.com/trans-youth-ar…

Happy to report that my paper with Travis Campbell on conversion therapy was accepted by Journal of Health Economics but am still disturbed by main result: exposure to conversion therapy increases the risk a transgender adolescent will attempt suicide by 17 percentage points.
