Ban on Conversion Therapy
In 2017, Tampa’s City Council decided it was time to put an end to the harmful practice of conversion therapy for minors.
However, not everyone was on board. In Vazzo v City of Tampa,
two therapists who were still living in the past decided to challenge the ban, wanting to continue
their outdated methods.
Thankfully, organizations like Equality Florida, NCLR, and the Southern Poverty Law Center, stepped in to support the ban, reminding everyone that Florida was moving forward, not backward.
