Conversion therapy is not healthcare.

β€œI don’t see any evidence from the research we have that demonstrates it’s effective,” Sadusky said. β€œI’ve heard cases of explicit harmβ€”immense shame, guilt, increased suicidality, distance in the relationship with parents." bit.ly/3IYo3yX

RMEQ’s Castro moderated a thought-provoking Q&A with Alok Vaid-Menon in Boulder last weekend!

They explored everything from how laughter helps us connect, to embracing complexity without fear, and why love can bring us back to truth.

In recent years, Colorado has seen a wave of policy proposals that don’t come from our communities but from national groups looking to use our state as a testing ground. And right now those extremist groups are pushing two ballot initiatives that target LGBTQ+ youth. #handsoffcolorado handsoffco.org

No child should ever experience what happened today at Evergreen High School. Students in Jefferson County, across Colorado, and in every part of this country should be safe in school.
