YouTube description

“Conversion therapy” is a practice that aims to change one’s sexual orientation or gender identity. Per UCLA’s Williams Institute, an estimated 700,000 people have undergone these change efforts, as of 2018. The practice has been widely discredited given its proven ineffectiveness and harm, with research showing that LGBTQ+ people who experience this therapy have significantly higher odds of lifetime suicidal ideation.

On October 7, 2025, the Supreme Court heard arguments in a landmark case that is challenging Colorado’s ban on conversion therapy with minors. On November 5, 2025, we got to have a timely and powerful discussion with Dr. Julia Sadusky & Linda Robertson - two individuals at the center of this historic moment. While representing differing faith convictions, they are unified in their advocacy for LGBTQ+ youth and an accurate representation of conversion therapy.
