SFHP proudly provides care for our transgender community
We believe it is important to support the health and wellness of all people through our services, care, and partnerships across San Francisco. That’s why SFHP follows the World Professional Association for Transgender Health Standards of Care version 8 (WPATH SOC-8) for gender-affirming care.
As an SFHP member, you can get gender-affirming care to support your health.
