Group Funded by You and Me Caught Pushing Trans Identity on Toddlers

-

A taxpayer-funded group has been exposed for pushing transgender lessons on toddlers.

The prominent early childhood development organization also encourages educators to promote critical race theory in ways even a toddler could understand.

The Washington Free Beacon has more on the organization shaping our impressionable youth with the aid of more than $230 million from U.S. taxpayers since 2008:

The group, , promoted these controversial views during its virtual conference this month, which included educational sessions titled “What Does It Mean to Be Transgender and How Can You Support Kids Who Might Be?” and “Elevating Racial Equity in the First 1,000 Days: Protecting, Promoting, and Preserving the , Wealth, and Learning of Our Families and Babies.”

“This [presentation] addresses the development of gender identity, including how early the process begins (ages 2–3), and how parents and professionals can distinguish gender exploration with the emergence of a transgender identity,” reads one session description.

Zero to Three, which has 3,653 members who work in the field of early childhood development, has received $234.68 million in funds from the Department of Health and Human Services since 2008 and is slated to receive an additional $52 million by 2027, including a $4.2 million grant from the set to begin this month. The group trained 89,222 professionals last year, according to its 2021 impact report.

As of this article's publication, the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) has not responded to calls for comment.

Public and private schools have adopted controversial left-wing curriculums on gender and race in recent years, but Zero to Three's advocacy on these issues represents one of the most high-profile attempts to promote these radical views in early childhood development. Parents often hire educators to assist in their child's development as they prepare for grade school—a process that requires child specialists to “consider the role of race and identity” and view gender as a “social construct” from the “prenatal period onwards,” according to Zero to Three's training sessions.

Zero to Three claims to be nonpartisan but has deep financial ties to the .

The Free Beacon's report notes that Zero to Three exclusively supported the Democrat's agenda last year, from President Biden's Build Back Better initiative to Illinois Gov. J. B. Pritzker's foundation for early childhood social and emotional development, the Pritzker Children's Initiative.

Recent polling shows a growing number of voters believe that Democrats have largely abandoned promoting fundamental academic skills.
