The Trans Care Project guidelines are consistent with (but more detailed than) the World Professional Association for Transgender Health (WPATH)'s Standards of Care for Gender Identity Disorders. The World Professional Association for Transgender Health (WPATH), formerly known as the Harry Benjamin International Gender Dysphoria Association, Inc. (HBIGDA) is a professional organization devoted to the understanding and treatment of gender identity disorders.
WPATH has approximately 350 members from around the world, in the fields of psychiatry, endocrinology, surgery, law, psychology, sociology, and counseling. Its Standards of Care represent an evolving interdisciplinary consensus on best practice in the provision of gender transition and crossdressing services.
