This submission appears to read more like an advertisement than an entry in an encyclopedia. Encyclopedia articles need to be written from a neutral point of view, and should refer to a range of independent, reliable, published sources, not just to materials produced by the creator of the subject being discussed. This is important so that the article can meet Wikipedia's verifiability policy and the notability of the subject can be established. If you still feel that this subject is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, please rewrite your submission to comply with these policies.

Article of the organization CTSN modeled after the article on the TrevorProject

The Conversion Therapy Survivor Network (CTSN) is an American 501(c)3 non-profit organization based in West Hollywood, California created to support survivors of conversion therapy.[1]

Founding

[edit ]

Conversion Therapy Survivor Network, formerly known as Conversion Therapy Dropout Network, was founded by Curtis Lopez-Galloway (he/they) in 2019 after "substantial research and realizing that [a support group for survivors] didn't already exist."[2] Lopez-Galloway experienced conversion therapy at the age of 16 in the state of Illinois.[3] After their experience in conversion therapy, Lopez-Galloway worked with government officials to create legislation banning conversion therapy practices in the state of Illinois in 2015.[4] Four years after that event, Lopez-Galloway founded CTSN.

Mission

[edit ]

"Our mission is to unite survivors of conversion therapy, or sexual and/or gender identity change and suppression efforts, and build a support network that addresses the lasting impact of these practices... Our belief is that healing comes from shared understanding and connection—by offering a platform to share stories and connect with others who have endured similar trauma, we help survivors take steps toward recovery."[5]

Programs

[edit ]

CTSN offers a weekly support group for survivors for SOGICE.[6] The term S.O.G.I.C.E. is an acronym for sexual orientation and gender identity change efforts.[7] SOGICE is the term often referred to in scientific research and is a more broad definition than the more publicly recognized terms "conversion therapy" or "reparative therapy".

Leadership

[edit ]

CTSN currently has five board of directors.[8]
