Gender and Sexual Health Services

Gender and Sexual Health Services at Brown University Health provides care for youth who are transgender, gender diverse, or otherwise exploring their gender and sexual identity.

We are here to meet your unique health needs and provide education, resources, and support to you and your family as you explore your growing gender and identity. Our goal is to help you be authentic and true to yourself in a safe and healthy way.

Our Philosophy

Gender (how we identify as male, female, both, neither and otherwise) and sexuality (who we are attracted to, who we love and who we have sexual activity with) are two different core aspects of growing up and maturing into a healthy adult.

Gender and sexuality can be a part of every person's growing self identity; people identify with and express gender in a wide variety of ways, and gender and sexuality may be fluid and change over a person’s lifetime.

We believe that exploring gender and sexuality is a normal and potentially lifelong process. Our goal is to support you in a safe and healthy manner.

Our Services

Our program offers services based on taking a careful history, conducting a thorough interview, and formulating a plan of care together. We use a patient and family centered process for better understanding our patients' gender and sexual health care needs and goals. We provide services in a sensitive, accepting environment.

Our team creates an individual treatment plan that is as unique as you are. Depending on where you or your family are in your experience of gender, we will work together to make a plan of care that meets your needs.
