EXCLUSIVE: San Francisco public schools partnered with local children's hospital for transgender trainings
for at least four years on responding to transgender students and their parents' concerns, new internal documents shows.
Ahead of the training, district staff circulated a document that provided several case study scenarios of gender-dysphoric students in the school district.The trainings were developed by the Benioff Children's Hospital's Child and Adolescent Gender Center, which provides a laundry list of services to"transgender, nonbinary and gender-diverse children and adolescents" and accepts patients as young as 3 years old.
In one of the scenarios provided in a document titled"Case Examples for UCSF Gender Affirmative Model," an eighth grade student who is a biological girl has transitioned to a male identity in social settings but has not taken any cross-sex hormones or puberty blockers. The scenario asks the social workers what to do if the child says,"I need testosterone or I will die."
In a training given to SFUSD staff in February 2019 and titled"Gender Affirmative Care With Youth," the school district's staff were told that believing in only two genders was considered an"assumption" and that the goal of transgender care is to"interrupt the path of preventable distress/dysphoria that leads to poor mental health outcomes," which"may or may not involve medical steps.
