Description:
Lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and questioning youths report experiencing more bullying than their non-LGBTQ+ peers. Pediatric primary care providers can do much to combat stigma and discrimination for their LGBTQ+ patients. Part 1 of this first-of-its-kind 3-part series can help show how to break down the cycles of ignorance, shame, and toxic stress that harm children who identify as LGBTQ+ and improve their chances of leading happy, healthy adult lives.
