Affirmation or Conversion Therapy? [Monthly Community Meeting]
FORGE / MKE LGBT CC 1110 N Market Street, 2nd Floor, Milwaukee, WI, United StatesJoin FORGE on Saturday, March 17, 2018 @ 2:00pm for a panel discussion on the emotional and physical health risks associated with conversion therapy. Nearly all medical and mental health professional associations have deemed conversion therapy as both ineffective and an attempt to "cure" something -- gender identity or sexual orientation -- that is NOT a disorder. Wisconsin is one of 41 states that do not have laws banning conversion therapy. An ordinance is before the Milwaukee Common Council on March 27, 2018 to ban conversion therapy. Come learn more and leave with some action steps to help ensure the ordinance passes. Panelists: Kim Skerven, Ph.D. Tony Snell Rodriguez Shelley Gregory
