Advisory council membership will consist solely of SFUSD parents and caregivers, but leadership positions will be reserved for those who identify as members of the LGBTQ+ community. The council is also free to explore possible student representation.

The formation of the new advisory council was a long time coming, especially in an area considered to be the gay mecca of the world. Ideas for the council were introduced almost a decade ago by Our Family Coalition, a local LGBTQ+ advocacy group. In its first year of operation, the new advisory council is expected to cost $480,000, a price tag that includes salaries and benefits for a full-time liaison and a project manager. It also would cover the fabrication of gender-neutral forms and signage for more than 1,000 single-stall restrooms throughout the district that would make them ADA compliant according to state law. At the time of the council’s establishment, the district is facing a $125 million deficit for fiscal year 2022-2023.
A parent identifying themself as Celestina, a queer mother to a nonbinary seventh grader, stressed the council’s importance. “Whether or not you believe in LGBTQ rights… I would really urge you to think about the fact that we all as human beings deserve to be loved and respected,” they said.
