A Southern California school district paid far-left transgender activists $12,000 for a six-hour training on transgender inclusion, a contract obtained by The Daily Wire reveals.
The activists administered the training on behalf of an organization called TransFamily Support Services, which was paid the five-figure sum by the San Dieguito Union High School District, located in northern San Diego County.
“In just six hours, #TeamTFSS trained 1,100 staff members across the entire San Dieguito Union High School District! Working with school districts is more crucial now than ever, especially as anti-trans rhetoric continues to infiltrate classrooms and campuses,” an Instagram post from the radical organization reads.
“We need our teachers and staff to be equipped to support and include trans youth, creating the space for them to feel safe and know that they’re valued at school,” it goes on to say. Images in the post indicate that the training was led by two activists with the far-left organization.
“There is no justification for a school district engaging with this organization that is steeped in pseudoscience, ideology and deception of parents,” Erika Sanzi, the Director of Outreach at Parents Defending Education told The Daily Wire.
TransFamily Support Services encourages children to identify as the opposite sex and provides them with binders and packers through its “Gender Junk” program. “With the help of grants, we assist transgender youth in need to feel more at home in their bodies and alleviate gender dysphoria,” the organization states.
The group offers to provide the items to children who don’t have “affirming families” that will purchase them the items.
The far-left organization has also endorsed the use of irreversible surgeries and medical interventions for children who identify as transgender. TransFamily Support Services even co-hosted an online training event with the head of the Los Angeles Children’s Hospital’s Center for TransYouth Health and Development. The center’s director, Johanna Olson-Kennedy was caught on camera downplaying the severity of medical sex change attempts on children in 2018.

“If you want breasts at a later point in your life, you can go and get them,” she posited. Olson-Kennedy is now being sued for medical negligence over the removal of a 14-year-old girl’s breasts. She is the co-author of a study funded by the National Institutes of Health on the psychological effects of cross sex hormone therapy on youth. Two participants in the study committed suicide, while another 11 experienced suicidal ideation.
Also present at the event co-hosted by TransFamily Support Services was Johanna Olson-Kennedy’s significant other, Aydin Olson-Kennedy. Aydin, who identifies as transgender, doesn’t believe that children should have to get approval letters from therapists before undergoing medical transitions, and even promoted a fundraiser to allow a person with Down syndrome to get a double mastectomy.
One potential step to curtail the influence of far-left organizations on public schools could be to federally mandate increased transparency around outside contracting organizations, Sanzi explained.
“The federal government could require more transparency around curriculum and contracts with consultants and vendors as a way to disincentivize partnerships with these kinds of organizations—failure to comply with transparency requirements could put funding at risk.”
The Daily Wire asked the San Dieguito Union High School District if staff members refer students who identify as transgender to the outside organization but did not receive a response.
TransFamily Support Services did not respond to a request for comment.
