A Chicago Hospital’s Radical Partnership with Local Schools

The largest children s hospital in Chicago has created partnerships with local school districts to promote radical gender theory, kink, BDSM, and trans-friendly sex toys for children.

I have obtained insider documents that reveal this troubling collaboration between gender activists at Lurie Children s Hospital of Chicago and school administrators throughout the Chicago area. According to these documents, and a review of school district websites, Lurie Children s Hospital has provided materials to school leaders promoting radical gender theory, trans activism, and sexually explicit materials in at least four Chicago-area public school systems: District 75, District 120, District 181, and District 204. According to a whistleblower, these documents were circulated to administrators, teachers, and other staff at the middle school and high school level as part of ongoing employee-training programs.

The primary training document, Beyond Binary: Gender in Schools, follows the basic narrative of academic queer theory: white, Western society has created an oppressive gender binary, falsely dividing the world into the categories of man and woman, that has resulted in transphobia, cissexism, and systemic discrimination against racial and sexual minorities. Versions of the document were attributed to Jennifer Leininger, associate director of Lurie s Community Programs and Initiatives, and Hadeis Safi, a nonbinary gender activist who uses they/them pronouns and works for the hospital s LGBTQ and Gender Inclusion program which advertises its care for children with gender expansive identities and offers gender-affirming medical procedures, including puberty blockers for children.
