Vermont couple reclaims foster care license after taking a stand on child gender transitioning
Vermont will no longer deny foster licenses based on anti-LGBTQ beliefs but aims to place queer youth in supportive homes, officials said.
- A Vermont couple, Melinda Antonucci and Casey Mathieu, had their foster care license restored after opposing state policies related to transgender children's social transitions and medical treatments.
- The couple faced potential license revocation from the Department for Children and Families for refusing to affirm transgender-identifying foster children by using preferred names, pronouns, or facilitating medical transition.
- The Center for American Liberty sued the Department for Children and Families, arguing that conditioning foster licensing on ideological beliefs violated the couple's freedom of speech and religion, resulting in a settlement.
- The settlement requires Vermont to implement guidance focusing on child safety and caregiving without conditioning foster licenses on compelled ideological speech, allowing the couple to foster children again.
