IFI Announces New Division of School Advocacy
Parents, grandparents, and concerned taxpayers -- Do you have concerns about what children are being taught in school?
Local public schools were originally designed to be places where young minds can be taught the basics -- reading, writing, and arithmetic -- and how to think critically. But, increasingly, they are becoming institutions where liberal and even radical social agendas are implemented, undermining the truths that parents teach their children at home and church.
Today, more than ever, parents must take to heart their God-given responsibility to guide their child's education and moral training.
The Illinois Family Institute helps to fight against pervasive secular humanism that exists in our public schools. Through the newly developed Division of School Advocacy, parents will be able to find answers and resources to help identify areas where the school curriculum strays from Biblical Truth and to recognize the influence from outside organizations such as Gay, Lesbian and Straight Education Network (GLSEN), which pressures administrators and educators to present this organization's views and agendas.
The purpose of the Illinois Family Institute's (IFI) new Division of School Advocacy (DSA) is to protect children from immoral, unhealthy, and dangerous ideologies and agendas in public schools. In the service of that critical goal, the DSA is committed to assisting Illinois residents to address issues related to the breakdown of Judeo-Christian family values and community standards in public education.
In addition to assisting each citizen who contacts IFI regarding school issues, Illinois Family Institute's Division of School Advocacy will continue to work tirelessly toward affecting morally sound legislation in Illinois public schools.
The DSA will provide constituents with the training, resources, and counsel needed for positive changes in public schools. Through this training, resources, and counsel, taxpayers will become better equipped to address administrators, faculty members, and school board members in appropriate and effective ways. The Division of School Advocacy will address such public school problem topics as Human Sexuality, Religion/Atheism, Race/"Social Justice", Marxism/Socialism/Income Redistribution, Gender/Feminism, Environmentalism, Abortion, Fetal Stem Cell Research, Population Control, and Miscellaneous Political Topics.
The goal of the Division of School Advocacy is to equip parents and taxpayers to do the following:Identify and challenge those structures, policies, and resources that contribute to the deception and moral corruption of public school students.
Oppose the post-modern relativism that has taken root in public education.
Oppose the use of public monies in ways that contribute to the normalization of obscenity, profanity, and sexual immorality (e.g. sex outside of marriage, promiscuity, homosexuality, and gender identity disorder).
Advocate for intellectual diversity and curricular parity on all controversial issues.
Oppose censorship of conservative scholarship.
Oppose the use of "comprehensive" and "safe" sex education curricula in their public schools.
Advocate for abstinence-only sex education curricula.
Defend and protect religious liberty, and oppose religious denigration. The Illinois Family Institute's new Division of School Advocacy is designed to help parents know where to turn when problems arise in the public school.
