The NFA Daily Spotlight: Help Not Harm, Treatment Not Transition

The NFA Daily Spotlight: Help Not Harm, Treatment Not Transition

Children who are struggling to embrace their biological sex need love, support, and time—not irreversible drugs and surgeries with lifelong consequences. Dr. Jennifer Bauwens joined the NFA Daily Spotlight to discuss how experimental “gender transition” practices are halting children’s natural development, harming their bodies, and complicating mental health issues. Dr. Bauwens serves as the Director of the Center for Family Studies at Family Research Council, researching and advocating for policies that best serve the health and well-being of families and communities. She recently testified in support of LB 574, a bill in the Nebraska Legislature to protect children who are experiencing gender dysphoria from harmful drugs and surgeries by prohibiting puberty blockers, cross-sex hormones, and gender reassignment surgeries on minors.
