Gay Therapy Group Finds New Home in Israel
02-05-2016
A U.S. Jewish group promoting a type of gay conversion therapy has moved its work to Israel.
The group, also known as "Jonah," was ordered to shut down in December by a New Jersey court, but Israeli health practitioners say their service is in high demand.
They say some Orthodox Jewish men fight same-sex attractions and want to be free of it so they can raise traditional families.
Israel's health ministry advises against reparative therapy, but no law limits it.
