Last month, Hawaii\u2019s State Senate <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hrc.org\/blog\/hi-state-senate-votes-to-protect-lgbtq-youth-from-abusive-practice-of-conve\" target=\"_blank\">passed SB 270<\/a> with only one senator voting against the bill.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo-called \u2018conversion therapy\u2019 is nothing short of child abuse with life-threatening consequences for countless LGBTQ youth,\u201d said HRC Senior Vice President for Policy and Political Affairs JoDee Winterhof. \u201cIt is time Hawaii join the growing number of states who are enacting laws to protect LGBTQ youth from this dangerous and discredited practice. We urge state legislators to swiftly advance SB 270 through conference committee with the strongest, timely protections intact and send it to Governor Ige\u2019s desk.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>There is no credible evidence that conversion therapy can change a person\u2019s sexual orientation or gender identity or expression. To the contrary, research has clearly shown that these practices pose devastating health risks for LGBTQ young people such as depression, decreased self-esteem, substance abuse, homelessness, and even suicidal behavior. The harmful practice is condemned by every major medical and mental health organization, including the American Psychiatric Association, American Psychological Association, and American Medical Association.<\/p>\n<p>Connecticut, California, Nevada, New Jersey, the District of Columbia, Oregon, Illinois, Vermont, New York, New Mexico, Rhode Island, and Washington all have laws or regulations protecting youth from this abusive practice. A growing number of municipalities have also enacted similar protections, including cities and counties in Ohio, Pennsylvania, Washington, Florida, New York, Arizona, and Wisconsin. In addition, the Maryland state legislature passed similar protections earlier this week.<\/p>\n<p>According to a <a href=\"https:\/\/williamsinstitute.law.ucla.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/Conversion-Therapy-LGBT-Youth-Jan-2018.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">recent report<\/a> by the Williams Institute at UCLA School of Law, an estimated 20,000 LGBTQ minors in states without protections will be subjected to conversion therapy by a licensed healthcare professional if state lawmakers fail to act.<\/p>\n<p>HRC has partnered with the National Center for Lesbian Rights (NCLR) and state equality groups across the nation to pass state legislation ending conversion therapy.
