Seattle public schools offer gender transition procedures while hiding students’ status from their parents.

Vice President of Parents Defending Education Caroline Moore joined The National Desk’s Jan Jeffcoat Friday to break it down.

“What we know is that Seattle Public Schools is partnering with this gender clinic, a nonprofit in the Seattle area. It's called Country Health Care Providers,” she said. “They're providing services anything from a lab test in a school, like a blood test to giving the students the referrals and the recommendations they need to obtain a gender transition surgery or to get hormones to help them in their gender transition.”

There are two clinics that offer transgender transition services to children that are located inside Seattle public schools and procedures are being offered at no costthrough two independent health centers on campus.

“Something important to note is that this is all happening without the consent of parents,” Moore said. “Parents are unaware that these clinics exist in their schools, and they're most definitely unaware that the clinics and school districts are partnering behind their backs, to use their insurance to pay for these referrals and services that kids are on the path to transitioning their gender.”
