And it’s had the same ...

And she absolutely loves what she does. But after the Harrisonburg City Public School Board instituted a new policy that upended parents’ right to direct the upbringing of their children, she knew she had to challenge the board’s violations of parents’ rights ...

Counselors are increasingly coming under threat from local, state, and federal laws and policies that seek to insert the government’s preferred views on gender into private conversations between a counselor and clients who are minors.
