An interesting study released today by the Palm Center at the University of California, Santa Barbara, shows that transgender veterans face being turned away by Veterans Administration hospitals and medical facilities as well as facing other forms of discrimination.
The study, based on a survey conducted by the Transgender American Veterans Association, is the first of its kind, according to TAVA. Participating in the survey were 827 U.S. military veterans and active-duty personnel.
