Salazar. This decision is a damaging blow to the health and safety of LGBTQ+ young people across the U.S., and will impact more than 20 state laws that protect against these dangerous, debunked practices – many of which have been in place for more than a decade. Despite the court’s decision, we must remain firm in rejecting these practices and ensuring our leaders know the truth: conversion therapy causes harm, and it has no place in our communities. Conversion therapy refers to a range of practices aimed at changing a person’s sexual orientation or gender identity. These practices are not legitimate therapy. They have zero basis in scientific evidence, and are rooted in a false belief that LGBTQ+ people need to be “fixed.” Every major medical and mental health association in the United States, including the American Medical Association, the American Psychiatric Association, and the American Psychological Association, condemns conversion therapy because of its clear and lasting harms. Research shows that LGBTQ+ young people subjected to conversion therapy were more than twice as likely to report having attempted suicide compared to those who were not. The Supreme Court’s decision does not change the facts. Conversion therapy is dangerous, and our lawmakers still have the power — and responsibility — to act. Contact your lawmakers today, and join our call for allies, supporters, families, and friends to help protect LGBTQ+ people across the U.S. Together, let’s end these dangerous practices once and for all. https://actionnetwork.org/letters/stop-conversion-therapy
