An Ohio church camp is housing children as young as 8 based on their gender identity, while parents will not be notified if a transgender counselor or camper is in their child's cabin, according to the camp's website.

Camp Akita, a mission of Columbus-based First Community Church, hosts camps for children entering first grade with overnight options available for kids entering third grade and above.

Counselors are assigned to cabins based off of their gender identity, the organization stated, adding that parents will not know the names of the counselors.

On its website, the camp states that it looks to follow Jesus, but that Christianity is not the only way of life. 

"While we seek to follow the way of Jesus, we recognize Christianity as one of many pathways to the Divine and affirm people from all spiritual traditions or from no tradition," Camp Akita wrote under its diversity, equity and inclusion statement.
