Hospital Worker: California is Pushing Radical 'LGBTQ+' Training on State Employees

The California Department of State Hospitals is forcing employees to complete 'LGBTQ+ training' that includes promotion of LGBT 'identities' like 'pansexual' and uses woke activist terms like 'sex assigned at birth,' according to a hospital worker.
[LifeSiteNews.com] "It's time to expose Tractor Supply," began the post on the X social media platform last month, highlighting the Fortune 500 company's DEI policies. The rural lifestyle retailer soon ditched its woke agenda affecting 50,000 employees in 49 states. (Image: Pixabay)
"LGBTQIA+ training for employees" topped the list of Tractor Supply's progressive misdeeds.
The corporate about-face was hailed as an example of the power of citizen activism, while government programs for diversity, equity, and inclusion are now being gutted in several red states.
The state of California, however, will be a tougher nut to crack. The nearly 250,000 employees of the Golden State are required by their departments to undergo DEI training that increasingly features LGBTQ content.
I work for the California Department of State Hospitals (DSH), whose roughly 13,000 employees provide mental health services to some 6,500 patients admitted into five state-run hospitals—Atascadero, Coalinga, Metropolitan (in Los Angeles County), Napa, and Patton.

It took me about two hours to click through the recorded "DSH LGBTQ+ Training 2024," a mandatory course aimed at clarifying what so-called "LGBTQ affirming care is, how to deliver it and why it matters."
A psychologist and a social worker at Napa State Hospital, which opened its doors to the mentally ill in 1875, kicked off the show by differentiating between "sexual orientation" and "gender identity."
I was informed that "sexual orientations" include "heterosexual, gay, lesbian, bisexual, asexual and pansexual."
Pansexual, according to my notes, "means that the person's sexual behavior and attraction is rooted in connection with the other person, rather than the gender the other person chooses to adopt"—denying our bodily reality.
"Gender identities," on the other hand, describe "the labels we put on ourselves regardless of our sexual orientation" and include woman man, "trans-man, trans-woman, cisgender, transgender, gender non-binary, gender fluid and gender queer"... Subscribe for free to Breaking Christian News here
