Celebrating PRIDE with the Stanford Gender Clinic

"I want to tell the people that I want to tell. And I want it to be easy for me to do that. And I want it also to be easy for me to be like, Hey, I don't want to tell that person and that that be okay. And just like have it be a normal thing like anything else you would tell somebody about yourself."That's Egan, a former patient of the Stanford Gender Clinic who underwent hormone replacement therapy. He explains the importance of identity and how and when to share that with peers. Our identities are a huge part of who we are, and that includes our gender identity. Transgender youth make up just 3% of the population but they're also at greatest risk of suicide compared to their non transgender peers because of rejection, bullying and other victimization. In honor of Pride Month, join us as we celebrate the Stanford Gender Clinic, a unique program that is rising to the new standard of promoting equitable, inclusive care for LGBTQ+ people and their families.

Leveling the Medical Playing Field: Health Equity Starts Where You Live, Work, and Play

“We know it's a question of access to health care, access to clean water, or access to healthy food. We know what the cause is, but we have differences because we haven't fixed those causes. So, when we talk about health inequities, we talk about differences that are, at their root, really unjust – and quite fixable – it's just a question of political will.”What is health equity and how does it impact youth? For youth today, access to healthcare means much more than simply providing services – to effect change, you must apply a holistic approach, taking into account variables like a child’s family background, their parents’ education, and access to technology. Researcher Dr. Chamberlain, Professor of Pediatrics, Associate Chair of Policy and Community, has been studying how culture and community, as well as how different interventions can level the playing field for children in terms of health equity.In this conversation, Dr. Chamberlain discusses issues around health equity, including how COVID-19 affected health equity, factors that roll into disparities and some strategies that work to reduce those disparities.<h2>Episode Length: 30 min</h2>1:53 - What is health equity?3:11 - How COVID-19 shed a light on the inequality kids and teens were facing4:53 - Telehealth’s advantages and possible disadvantages with respect to health equity7:43 - How addressing racism, social injustice, and poverty as core determinants of health can impact a child for life9:54 - An example of how two different kids with a similar diagnosis face different outcomes based on their backgrounds11:39 - Implications when not everyone can take advantage of innovations14:30 - How health inequities play out in mental health17:35 - How a mother’s education level affects her children’s health outcomes20:34 - Strategies to reduce disparities28:14 - Park Prescriptions programAbout the PodcastCare + Cures: Advancing children's health in Silicon Valley (a Lucile Packard Foundation for Children's Health podcast) unites families, donors, doctors and more to advance transformative healthcare for children.
