Please Ban Conversion “Therapy”
 

Please ban this unscientific, unscrupulous pseudo-therapy.  No minor should ever be shamed by a mental health professional into thinking that who they are is wrong. Mental health professionals should provide care that is ethical and affirming for lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender young people.  We can’t allow one more child to be targeted and hurt by these dangerous and discredited practices.
