Conversion Therapy Ban
Conversion Therapy Ban
Conversion therapy needs to be banned. It is a dangerous practice that only serves to send people back into the closet. It causes psychological damage that may take years to overcome. As the mother of 6, two of whom are LGBT+, I wholeheartedly support my kids and support the banning of conversion therapy.
