Gender Entrenchment Index

This map is an overview of how deeply the gender industrial complex is embedded in law and policy for each state. The scoring considers not just which states allow or restrict pediatric gender medicine, but also includes minimum age thresholds, explicit protections for providers, and court decisions that shield gender interventions from accountability. The higher the score, the more difficult it may be to disentangle these legal protections and to restore medical safeguards for children.
