A transgender teen will be the first child in her state to have gender reassignment surgery covered by Medicaid. Trinity Neal, from Wilmington, Delaware, knew that she was living in the wrong body when she was three years old, before she had even started elementary school. Now aged 16, Trinity has been living authentically as a girl for over 12 years. Trinity made history by becoming the first minor in Delaware to have their medical and surgical transition covered by Medicaid, a state program that offers health insurance coverage for lower-income families.
