The Colorado State Legislature defines conversion therapy as the effort to change an individual’s sexual orientation, including efforts to change behaviors or gender expressions or to eliminate or reduce sexual or romantic attraction or feelings toward individuals of the same sex. The Legislature felt so strongly about the dangers of conversion therapy that, with bipartisan support, they passed House Bill 19-1129, prohibiting conversion therapy for minors in Colorado.  

HB 19-1129 is being challenged in court by a conservative Christian therapist in Colorado Springs.
