A concerned mother from Davis, California, raised alarm during the Yolo County Board of Supervisors meeting on September 9, 2025, regarding an event she hosted at the Yolo County Library. The event, titled "Gender Affirming Care: Lifesaving or Lies," featured speakers who identified as detransitioners. The mother expressed her frustration over the presence of protesters, whom she described as intimidating, and criticized the lack of law enforcement support during the event. She claimed that the county allowed activists to chalk messages outside the library while prohibiting her from doing the same, highlighting her concerns about the influence of the "trans agenda" on children.

Following this heated discussion, the Board moved on to approve several consent agenda items, including a resolution declaring August as National Immunization Awareness Month. Supervisor Allen emphasized the importance of vaccinations, sharing personal anecdotes about her experiences with childhood diseases and the benefits of immunization. Health officials echoed her sentiments, stressing that vaccines are safe and save lives.

The meeting also recognized August and September as Breastfeeding Awareness and Advocacy Month, with officials discussing the need for increased support for breastfeeding families in Yolo County. They highlighted the importance of community resources and peer counseling programs to assist new mothers.

Lastly, the Board proclaimed September 2025 as National Literacy Month, with officials underscoring the critical role of literacy in personal empowerment and community development. They celebrated the efforts of local libraries in providing access to educational resources and fostering a love for reading among residents.

The discussions at the meeting reflect ongoing community concerns about health, education, and support systems in Yolo County, with officials committed to addressing these issues through awareness and advocacy initiatives.
