SF 5167 Minnesota Senate · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Prohibition repeal on conversion therapy with minors and vulnerable adults

This bill removes the state prohibition against conversion therapy for minors and vulnerable adults, allowing mental health practitioners to offer such services to these groups again. The legislation amends existing statutes to define conversion therapy while clarifying that support for gender transition and identity exploration remains permitted. By repealing the specific section that banned these practices for young people and vulnerable adults, the bill effectively lifts the current restrictions on mental health professionals in Minnesota.
