From curriculum to school administration, gender affirming medicine to privacy, and opt-out rights to school surveys, parental rights are increasingly under attack. But what has the United States Supreme Court said about the nature of parental rights, and what do those rights include? What about statutory laws that directly impact the rights of parents of minor children—can they serve to shore up parental rights while the Supreme Court remains silent on the issue, as it has for 24 years and counting? Can a combination of litigation and legislation further strengthen the rights of parents to direct the care, upbringing, and education of their children?
Join Heritage Foundation Senior Legal Fellow Sarah Parshall Perry and two panels of experts in family law and public policy as they provide answers to these questions and more during a half-day symposium on the American family in the crosshairs.
