Virginia Becomes 20th State To Ban Conversion Therapy
Virginia Governor Ralph Northam this week signed into law House Bill 386 (full text) which bans licensed health professionals from engaging in conversion therapy with anyone under 18 years of age. New York Times reports that this makes Virginia the twentieth state to ban these attempts to change sexual orientation of gender identity. It is the first southern state to do so.
