Children's Hospital of Philadelphia willing to perform medical gender transition on minors in foster care


“If they are under 18 and they are on the street and they are completely emancipated from their parents, then you can do treatment,” said Dr. Rachel Levine

A video has emerged on Twitter of the co-founder of the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP) gender clinic, Nadia Dowshen, saying that the clinic receives referrals of children to their program from the foster care system and from homeless shelters. Children and teens who are in these systems are often wards of the state, and do not have parents or guardians to guide them.

Often, children in these systems have been subject to neglect or even abuse as they navigate uncertainties such as housing and food insecurity. The clip, uncovered by Megan Eileen, is from the Q&A of a September 2020 Health Committee titled Appropriate Care Models for Transgender Minors.

Megan Eileen juxtaposed the video of Dowshen with Dr. Rachel Levine, the Biden administration's assistant secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services. Levine, who identifies as transgender, began transitioning from presenting as male to presenting as female after a full life as a male, complete with having had a wife and fathered a family in the natural way. Levine, a supporter of the CHOP gender clinic, explained that providers don’t need parental consent to treat emancipated minors with puberty blockers, which can cause sterility.

“What can you do for a patient who doesn’t have parental support?” Levine was asked by a member of the audience at the It’s a Transgeneration: Issues in Transgender Medicine event at Franklin and Marshall College in 2017. Prior to serving in the Biden administration, Levine was Pennsylvania's Physician General.

“If they are under 18 and they are on the street and they are completely emancipated from their parents, then you can do treatment,” replied Levine. “But … most patients, under 18, I cannot prescribe hormones without their parents’ consent. However, once they become 18, I can.”
