📢ACTION ALERT: Congressional leaders have struck a back-room deal to force a vote on H.R. 3492—a dangerous bill that would criminalize gender-affirming care for transgender young people. The House could vote on this legislation as soon as NEXT WEEK.

If passed, H.R. 3492 would:
• Charge healthcare providers with a felony and threaten up to 10 years in federal prison
• Impose fines or even jail time on doctors and other providers
• Open the door to criminal charges against parents for following the guidance of their child’s medical team.

This bill is an unprecedented intrusion into the private relationship between families, their doctors, and the care young people need to thrive. It also specifically discriminates against transgender youth who need this care; non-transgender youth who access such care will continue to have that access…and non-transgender youth are the largest group of young people accessing this care, currently.

TAKE ACTION TODAY! Urge your Representative to oppose this discriminatory bill and protect the health and well-being of ALL youth by voting NO on H.R. 3492. Visit pflag.org/takeaction

You never know what someone might be going through in private, both with their struggles and when they silently overcome them.

Mental Health and Physical Health are often viewed as fairly separate, but they have more intersection than some may think.

Recently, the Global Burden of Disease Study was published. However, this study overlooks those with Somatoform disorders, which can produce symptoms like "headaches, chronic pain, gastrointestinal issues, or excessive worry about illness" while being connected to "psychological factors rather than a clear medical cause."
