Lurie Children’s Hospital increased security after it became the latest children’s hospital to face criticism over its gender program.
The outside of Lurie Children's Hospital in Chicago is seen during an April 2021 news briefing.
An account called Libs of TikTok posted a number of tweets late last month criticizing Lurie’s program, which aims to support “the physical, mental and social health of patients and their families as youth progress through gender identity development,” according to Lurie’s website. Many of the program’s patients are gender-nonconforming children, gender-questioning youth and transgender and gender-fluid youth.
“Lurie Children’s has long supported gender-affirming care for transgender youth,” Lurie said in the statement. “All young people should have access to comprehensive, gender-affirming, and developmentally appropriate health care that is provided in a safe and inclusive environment.”
