The announcement leaves it open whether children of employees or students will have access to euphemistically called gender affirming treatments (e.g. puberty blocker, surgery). However, it is safe to assume children will be covered too. Child abuse comes to mind!

"As an institution committed to seeing LGBTQ+ faculty, staff, and students thrive, Johns Hopkins University and Medicine today announced important expansions of their gender-affirming care benefits and support.
Beginning today, Johns Hopkins health insurance plans will be updated and aligned enterprisewide to cover an expanded range of gender-affirming care for all users of these plans. All the plans—most of which previously offered coverage for gender-affirming surgeries in addition to hormone therapy—will extend coverage to include additional gender-affirming care procedures, namely voice therapy and facial reconstructive procedures. Hopkins will also close coverage gaps and align all enterprisewide plans to offer the same levels of coverage. ..."
