Thank you CT Insider for highlighting the work we are doing Connecticut Children's to support our transgender kids. We shouldn’t have to do this but ALL kids deserve the care they need. #forthekids ctinsider.com/capitalregion/…

History was made at Connecticut Children’s as the first health system in Connecticut to administer gene therapy for Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD) 🎉. The procedure has given Joseph newfound hope for improved mobility and quality of life. ❤️ #beyondimagination

While you’re in the arena taking on giants, some people will sit in the bleachers critiquing your strategy. Keep your eyes on the prize and your ears tuned only to the still small voice within and to those who have done what you’re doing.

The most sacred duty of Congress is to protect the American people—especially our children. 11 years after Sandy Hook, we have failed. Doing nothing to prevent gun violence is cowardly and shameful. Until we take action, innocent children will continue to die.

Eleven years ago today, 26 elementary school students and teachers were lost in the Sandy Hook shooting that took place in Newtown, Connecticut. 😔 ⁣Please take a moment to remember the children and teachers who were lost. ❤️ #alwaysinourhearts

Online now! How do we move beyond statements to protect transgender youth - what more can children’s hospitals consider doing? Thrilled that JAMA has published our viewpoint William Zempsky Connecticut Children's #mentalhealth #LGBTQIA jamanetwork.com/journals/jama/…

Viewpoint from Connecticut Children's authors explores the politicized nature of gender-affirming care for transgender and nonbinary youth and how children’s hospitals can provide education, resources, and access to families seeking care. ja.ma/4c3zNZk

Now’s the time. Do we stand by and let transgender kids lose more hope and access to care? Or do we come together and work together to make sure every kid gets the care they deserve. #mentalhealth #transgender .Connecticut Children's .American Psychological Association .Society of Pediatric Psychology .The Trevor Project .HRC 🥥🌴
