SF school board approves queer trans parent committee
With only one member opposed, the San Francisco Unified School District board voted Tuesday night to create a parent advisory council for queer and trans families.
It's the third school district in California to do so. The February 8 vote of 6-1 came during the last meeting before the February 15 recall election that could see three board members voted out of office: President Gabriela López and Commissioners Alison Collins and Faauuga Moliga.
During a school board committee meeting last week about the Queer Transgender Parent Advisory Council, the San Francisco Chronicle reported that Collins and Moliga clashed over the cost of the proposal.
Resolution No. 2111-91, titled "In Support of Equitable Representation and Services for Two-Spirit Lesbian Gay Bisexual Transgender Intersex Asexual (2SLLGBTQIA+) Parents and Families and Creation of a Queer Transgender Parent Advisory Council (QTPAC)" faced no real opposition.
