The Federal Government examines the Cincinnati Children's Hospital for scholarships to help minority students. The Office for Civil Rights of the Ministry of Health and Human Services examines whether these programs violate the law. The law firm, which brought in the original complaint, the Wisconsin Institute for Law and Liberty (Will), identified four programs at Cincinnati Children's that they claim that they are discriminatory. “Basically, using advantages and scholarship options and other educational opportunities based on the breed or gender of an individual, this has long been illegal,” said an Associate Counsel for will, Cara Tolliver.

Tolliver believes that if the hospital refuses to end the programs, the Trump administration could grant money from the children. “There is a lot of federal financing on the line,” she said. It is now on hold after a federal judge has blocked the Trump government and the Ministry of Justice from the enforcement of the Ministry of Justice.

The Federal Government examines the Cincinnati Children's Hospital for scholarships that are intended to help minority students.
The office for civil rights of the Ministry of Health and Human Services examines whether these programs violate the law.
Cincinnati Children's and The Cleveland Clinic are both examined and John's Hopkins in Baltimore. The law firm, which brought in the original complaint, the Wisconsin Institute for Law and Liberty (Will), identified four programs at Cincinnati Children that it claims, discriminatory.
These are the William K. Schubert underlying Nursing Scholarship, the Jean Turnerity Scholarship for Medical imaging technology, the biomedical research internship for minority students and the administrative scholarship program.
“Basically, using advantages and scholarship options and other educational opportunities based on the breed or gender of an individual, this has long been illegal,” said an Associate Counsel for will, Cara Tolliver.
The law firm claims that the programs violate six protection of the 1964 Civil Rights Act.
Tolliver believes that if the hospital refuses to end the programs, the Trump administration could grant money from the children.
“There is a lot of federal financing at the moment,” she said.
The move would be aligned with the arrangement of the White House Day to end federal financing at institutions with diversity, equity and inclusion programs. It is now on ice after a federal judge prevented the Trump administration and the Ministry of Justice from enforcing it.
It is unclear how this decision will affect the examination in the children's hospital.
“The agency will take as long as the agency needs,” said Tolliver.
Tolliver also indicates another decision from 2023 when the Supreme Court ended in the affirmative measures in College approval.
She says that this also applies to examining the children's hospital.
“And I think the position of the court has greatly reinforced cases that questioning racial measures like this,” said Tolliver.
WLWT turned to Cincinnati Children's to receive an answer to the submitted complaint and the potential examination.
The children's hospital refused to make a comment or go to the camera on Thursday.
