There will be an Ex-Gay Survivor’s Caucus group meeting at Creating Change 2011. Creating Change will be February 2 through the 6th at the Hilton Minneapolis. The event is organized by the National Gay and Lesbian Task Force. The group will be facilitated by ex-gay survivor Philip Lowe, Jr.

“During the Caucus group meeting the plan is to have the group discuss ways in which we can use our ‘ex-gay’ survivor stories to help create change in the lives of LGBT individuals on the grassroots level,” said Lowe.
