🧵How Gender Clinics Infiltrate Schools 🧵

This week I shared training videos created by the CHOP Gender and Sexuality Development Clinic. Let’s learn more about its co-founder, Nadia Dowshen, and the clinics vision for education and schools.
12/6/18: Nadia spoke at an NIH Women's Health Seminar Series. She explains that transgender patients must have a medical diagnosis to receive treatment. The diagnosis used is Gender Dysphoria. It appears transitioning a child is assumed as the gold standard of care for this dx.
Puberty Blockers.

Starting a young child on puberty blockers is beneficial because, “it can delay irreversible secondary sex characteristics,” and can help a patient avoid top surgery.

These hormone treatments are expensive and can cost up to $40,000 a year.
Nadia states that impacting schools is a huge part CHOP’s Gender Clinic’s mission. They currently provide trainings for educators and schools, helping them to adopt and implement this ideology.
The mission to infiltrate schools was clearly stated in a 2016 paper Nadia authored. “Every school district should develop and incorporate LGBT-inclusive curriculum.” Here is an RTK email where a staff member of the gender clinic was “begging” to get trainings into schools.
“We can teach pronouns to our Kindergartners”

Let’s see some clips from one of the educational trainings offered by the CHOP Gender clinic.

The first is about teaching elementary kids pronouns.
Another feature of the trading is teaching educators how eliminate gender from their communication and classroom.

“There is no scientific reason why we ask students to line up ‘boys’ and ‘girls.’
“Gender Identity is considered confidential and private information.”

“When we get this information we keep it private from other students, other staff members, and from parents.”

Please note, this training was in conjunction with the @PAHumanServices. Elections matter.
If all treatment is based on a dx of Gender Dysphoria, why is transitioning the child seen as the best treatment?

Medicine used to assume parents were their child’s expert. Why are parents who challenge this course of treatment portrayed as adversarial and non-supportive?

🧵EXCLUSIVE: Here’s How A Small Band Of Pediatricians Pushed Medical Org Into Nixing Age Minimums For Sex Changes

Based on the four doctors’ review, the AAP strong-armed WPATH into removing sex-change surgery age minimums from the SOC-8. ⬇️⬇️⬇️ Image
Emails reveal the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) asked just four doctors — all of whom are considered leaders in the field of pediatric sex changes and have performed various transgender procedures — to review and provide feedback on an embargoed copy of the World Professional Association of Transgender Health’s (WPATH) clinical guidance, called the Standards of Care version 8 (SOC-8), weeks before its expected publication.Image
In an amicus brief submitted in the upcoming Supreme Court case United States v. Skrmetti, Alabama Attorney General Steve Marshall explains that Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) Assistant Secretary for Health Rachel Levine — who is openly transgender — had unsuccessfully pressured WPATH to remove the surgical age minimums, but the pressure from the AAP “tipped the scales,” causing WPATH to remove the child sex-change surgery age minimums.Image

🧵The Biden-Harris Administration ‘War On Families’

The Biden-Harris embrace of transgender ideology puts parents who don’t affirm their child’s gender confusion at risk of being labeled ‘abusive.’

Across the country ‘non-affirming’ parents are losing custody of their kids.
In December, @katesrichardson reported on a document I discovered on a federal government website.

A federally funded “home visiting” program advised service providers to watch for signs of abuse against “gender-diverse children” like not letting a young child cross-dress. Image

The document was guidance for the Maternal, Infant, and Early Childhood Home Visiting (MIECHV) Program which is intended to combat abuse and neglect while promoting “positive parenting” and school readiness among “pregnant people and families.”

EXCLUSIVE: Child Services Dept Working With Biden Harris-Admin Tracked ‘Trans Kids’ On Secret Database

Shocking story and the 4th installment of the @DailyCaller News Foundation's series on how child welfare systems are embracing gender ideology. Image
An Ohio child welfare agency created a “confidential spreadsheet” tracking the sexual orientation and transgender identity of children as young as 5, according to a document exclusively obtained by the Daily Caller News Foundation. Image
The Cuyahoga County Division of Children and Family Services (DCFS) created a database tracking the sexual orientation, transgender identity and pronouns of children that interacted with the child welfare system.

The spreadsheet was part of their ‘Safe Identification’ program, which teaches social services staff how to collect information about the sexuality and gender identity of children.Image

🧵Transgender Ideology: The intersection of religious freedom and parental rights.

While spending 10+ months researching how gender ideology is transforming the child welfare system, one thing that stood out was a focus on changing the minds of religious parents.
For many religions, a binary male-female view of sex is not only a matter of biology, it’s a matter of faith.

For example, for Christians gender ideology is a violation of religious conscience as the Bible clearly states “God created them male and female."
One of the interventions the @DailyCaller News Foundation covered in our report was the Youth Acceptance Project (YAP), which can be implemented by social workers to persuade hesitant parents to affirm their child’s gender dysphoria.

EXCLUSIVE: Biden-Harris Admin Paves Way For Bureaucrats To Take Gender-Confused Kids From ‘Non-Affirming’ Parents

🧵@katesrichardson and I took a deep dive into the ongoing LGBTQ affirming transformation of the child welfare system.

@DailyCaller News Foundation Image
When the Biden-Harris administration implemented a new policy in April 2024 requiring foster care families to be LGBTQ “affirming” concerms were raised that religous families would be excluded from becoming foster parents.

We discovered how it could impact all families now.
The Biden-Harris administration’s new federal rule directs states to ensure foster children who identify as LGBTQ are placed in affirming homes.

These “designated placements” must commit to creating an environment that supports a child’s “status or identity."
