This committee has been created due to the ongoing need to revise WPATH's Standards of Care.
The mission of the Standards of Care Revision Committee is to:
1.) Represent the disciplines generally involved in the evaluation and multimodal treatment of persons with gender identity disorders
2.) Collect, examine, and discuss the literature pertaining to the evaluation and treatment of persons with gender identity disorders and to make recommendations for revisions to the existing Standards of Care when a significant body of information becomes available meriting a revision. By the very nature of the scientific process, there is no specific timetable for releasing new revisions; this is an ongoing process.
