CO HB1322

Creates a civil cause of action allowing individuals harmed by sexual orientation or gender identity change efforts ("conversion therapy") to sue licensed mental health professionals, their employers, and entities that negligently hired or supervised them

Eliminates the statute of limitations entirely for these claims, allowing lawsuits to be filed at any time regardless of when the conversion therapy occurred

Permits recovery of economic damages, noneconomic damages, and exemplary damages for willful or wanton conduct; the cause of action survives the plaintiff's death and may be brought by their estate within 5 years of death

Establishes a plaintiff-favorable causation framework where once general harm from conversion therapy is shown, specific causation may be inferred unless the defendant proves the injury was caused solely by unrelated factors

Effective July 1, 2026, applying to claims filed on or after that date, including claims where the prior statute of limitations had not yet expired
