The Transphobic attitude exhibited by the Evansville, Indiana School Board as described in this article is disgraceful, heartbreaking, and terribly hurtful to Transgender kids.
LGBTQ youth suffer from higher rates of depression and suicide as compared to straight kids due to the prejudice and intolerance many have to face. It is quite common for LGBTQ youth to have to deal with intolerance from other kids, students in their classes, and even their own families.
Transgender students are at particularly high risk. They need help and support. Especially when they are facing intolerance from their own families.
From this article, it sounds like the Evansville School Board doesn’t particularly care.
What is more devastating by the Board’s horrible attitude is that it’s the Transgender kids who will suffer. https://illinoiseagle.com/#/article/23445
