New Lawsuit Over Anti-LGBT Discrimination in Fostercare Program
Channel: Atheist Republic
Date: 25/10/2021

On October 13th, Kelly Easter accused the U.S. federal government of financing organizations that discriminate against LGBT individuals from becoming foster parents. Ms. Easter was declined twice from becoming a foster parent for a migrant child by a foster care program that receives federal funding. Easter had previously applied at the only local organization participating in the national program for migrant children, Bethany Christian Services (BCS). BCS first denied her application because she is a lesbian. Later they changed their policy to allow LGBT parents, and Easter applied again. But this time, Easter was told that she would have to drive to a different town’s BCS chapter to apply because her local chapter’s office was under contract with the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops, which refuses to certify LGBT people as foster parents. The Conference of Catholic Bishops receives federal funding to provide foster care services. Easter is suing the Administration for Children and Families, the Office of Refugee Resettlement, and the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, claiming violations of her First and Fifth Amendment rights.
