India's first transgender clinics close after USAID freeze

India's first transgender clinics closed following a stop-work order from the U.S. Agency for International Development that funded them, disrupting services for nearly 5,000 people.
U.S. President Donald Trump ordered a review of foreign aid to ensure projects align with his 'America First' policy, which affected the clinics.
The clinics provided essential services, including hormone therapy guidance, mental health counselling, and legal aid, and required about 3 million rupees annually to operate, according to one source.
The clinics received a waiver to continue certain life-saving activities, such as providing antiretroviral medication to HIV-infected clients.
