The Welcome Project PA is 
excited to welcome Dr. Lucas F.W. Wilson to lead a presentation and 
conversation about his book Shame-Sex Attraction, to discuss the harmful
 effects of conversion therapy, and to learn how to be better informed 
and supportive of LGBT+ individuals.&nbsp;
This will be a timely discussion, because as of&nbsp;March
 31, 2026, the U.S. Supreme Court [8-1] overturned Colorado's 2019 law 
banning conversion therapy for minors, ruling it violated counselors' 
First Amendment free speech rights.&nbsp;
So join us for this important evening of learning, dialogue, and solidarity.
PAY-AS-YOU-WISH
 Tickets: in the registration you will have the option to donate. All 
proceeds from this event will go to support our intersectional work with
 LGBT+ and Immigrant communities.Thank you for Widening the Welcome!!Register here:&nbsp;<a href="https://wl.donorperfect.net/weblink/WebLink.aspx?name=E357288&amp;id=86" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">wl.donorperfect.net/weblink/WebLink.aspx?name=E357288&amp;id=86</a>
