On this day, we honour survivors, raise awareness about the real harms of conversion therapy practices, and continue the work to end these practices everywhere they still exist.
You don’t have to be a survivor to take action.
You can:
• Learn why conversion therapy is harmful
• Share survivor-led resources
• Support ongoing advocacy and education
• Help create safer, affirming communities
Visit ConversionSurvivor.org and StopConversionPractices.ca to learn more!

Looking for a friendly check-in with your community? Grab a cup of tea and join us from wherever you are as we share in each other's company! This is a safe space for anyone who identifies as an 2SLGBTQ+ community member or ally.
Please note that this meeting is moderated by Outlink staff and volunteers who reserve the right to remove anyone from the group who is in violation of our Safer Space Ground Rules.
This meetup is intended as a space for casual connection, reminding us that we do not need to be socially distant even while practicing physical distancing. This is not a structured therapy group nor is it a dating space. If you are looking for further support, Outlink staff are available to meet with you one-on-one or in small groups by phone, text based messaging, or video call upon request. They can also help connect you to other counselling services.
Advance registration is required for all our Zoom meetings. Register here.
