ADF represents woman who objected to 2019 Colorado law outlawing conversion practices for youth under age 18
A Christian legal group is urging the US supreme court to overturn a ban on “conversion therapy” on Tuesday in a high-stakes case that could roll back the rights of LGBTQ+ youth across the country.
In Chiles v Salazar, the Alliance Defending Freedom (ADF) is representing a woman who objected to a 2019 Colorado law outlawing conversion practices for youth under age 18. The law applies to licensed mental health clinicians who seek to change a patient’s gender identity or sexual orientation, discredited tactics that major medical associations have said are ineffective and harmful.
