The UNC Transgender Health Program created social media pages in order to engage with our patients and community, as well as provide a space for folks to engage with one another. We want to share our rules and tips for engagement to make sure that this is a safe and beneficial space for all.
1. This page is monitored by THP staff but is NOT intended to be a secure method to contact us about initiating care or to field any care-related questions. Please contact us via email at transhealth@unc.edu or by phone at 1-833-UNC-TRNS if you’d like to speak to a staff member.
2. Please don’t post any unauthorized advertising, promotions, or spam of any kind. Post of this kind will be removed by page admins.
3. Don’t impersonate another person or misrepresent your affiliation with another person or entity.
4. This page is intended to share information about our program and about accessing gender-affirming care and resources in and around North Carolina.
5. Stalking, harassing, threatening, hate speech, and abusive or defamatory language will not be tolerated.
6. ALWAYS discuss information you read online with your provider before making any medical or mental health decisions.
7. Following a user, being followed by a user, or sharing another user’s content does not represent an endorsement by the UNC Transgender Health Program nor does it indicate that that person is a patient, donor, or affiliate of the organization
8. Don’t collect or store personal information about other users. By participating in our social media channels, you are agreeing to this commenting policy. If you violate this policy, we may remove your comment from our page or block you from commenting on future threads. Thank you for working with us to ensure this space is safe and respectful.
