Tell the Whitehouse to END the fraudulent practice of Reparative Therapy

The Issue

The Anti-Gay Industry pursues many targets in their homophobic crusade but one of the their most dangerous are our youth. 

Several organizations such as Exodus International, NARTH, Coral Ridge Ministries and several others are pushing programs known as Reparative Therapy or "pray away the gay" that are pushing our youth into depression and even suicide.

Reparative Therapy programs and so-called ex-gay camps have been repudiated by professional medical organizations such as the American Psychological Association and the American Psychiatric Association.

With the recent uptick in bullying and youth suicides, the federal government must step up to the plate and shut down these fraudulent institutions that attack the core of one's identity and pushes them into suicides.
