Do No Harm Urges Benevity to Ditch SPLC’s Discredited ‘Hate List’
Benevity is a software company that provides a platform to facilitate companies’ charitable giving efforts to nonprofit organizations.

EXCLUSIVE: Docs Knew Gender Science Was ‘Shoddy,’ But Pushed Chemical Sex Changes On Kids Anyway
WPATH’s use of the Delphi method was “deeply flawed,” Dr. Kurt Miceli, medical director of Do No Harm, told the DCNF. “WPATH’s use of the Delphi process to justify its guidelines on gender-affirming care is deeply flawed — not because of the method itself, but because of who was allowed to define ‘expertise,’” Miceli told […]

Lauren Schwartz, MD
“I was wrong.” It’s one of the hardest things a person can say. It’s why pushing back against gender ideology takes evidence and empathy – and perhaps nobody balances them better than Dr. Lauren Schwartz, a psychiatrist, a mother of 3, and a senior fellow at Do No Harm.
