The Department of Justice (DOJ) has recently issued civil subpoenas to healthcare facilities that provide gender-affirming care for transgender youth. These actions are part of a broader campaign seeking to limit or end access to this vital care.

To support families and advocates, AWAB is sharing a new fact sheet resource: Department of Justice Subpoenas Sent to Healthcare Facilities Treating Trans Youth: Information for Parents and Advocates.

This resource explains:

  • What the subpoenas are and what they request.

  • What healthcare entities can do in response.

  • How parents and advocates can act to protect their children’s privacy.

  • Where to find additional support through the ACLU, Lambda Legal, and Transgender Law Center.

As always, we want families to know: you are not alone. Faith communities, legal advocates, and healthcare partners are working together to protect trans youth and their families.
