Christian Overnight Camp Says It Will Be Shut Down Under Colorado's Gender Identity Rules
- A faith-based summer camp near Bailey, Colorado, established in 1948, is at risk of closure because state licensing rules now require facilities to accommodate campers based on gender identity, a policy the camp opposes on religious grounds.
- A new state licensing requirement mandates that camps must allow transgender-identifying minors to use facilities corresponding to their gender identity; after being denied a religious exemption, the camp filed a legal challenge against these rules.
- The camp maintains its policies segregate facilities by biological sex and argues complying with the new rules would violate its Christian beliefs and mission, while it seeks to operate without penalties.
- Andrea Dill, an attorney with Alliance Defending Freedom, argued that the state should not prohibit religious summer camps from maintaining their beliefs about human sexuality as Camp IdRaHaJe seeks relief through federal court.
- The lawsuit challenges the constitutionality of the policy, and the camp risks losing its license and facing fines unless allowed to operate consistent with its religious convictions.
