1. "Sexual Politics And Scientific Logic: The Issue Of Homosexuality"
Dr. Charles W. Socarides is one of the original founders of NARTH. He became embroiled
in the debate within the APA in
the 1970s over efforts to remove homosexuality as a mental disorder from the
Diagnostic and Statistical Manual (DSM). In this article, Dr. Socarides observes that the removal of homosexuality from the DSM in 1973,
"...created injustices for the homosexual, as it belied the truth that prevented the
homosexual from seeking and receiving psychoanalytic help." (Read
full summary.) This important document
should be in the hands of lawmakers, school officials, pastors, members of the
media, and parents who are concerned about their children being encouraged to
experiment with a homosexual lifestyle through organizations such as the Gay, Lesbian, and
Straight Education Network (GLSEN). Suggested donation: $10.
2. "Homosexual Advocacy Groups & Your School"
This BRAND NEW, 6-page glossy pamphlet strongly advises schools to encourage
students to wait until adulthood to make decisions about sexual identity.
Students should also be informed that therapy exists to diminish
homosexuality. This pamphlet is a "must have" for all parents who are
concerned about homosexual advocacy groups coming to their local school
campus. Parents may wish to personally deliver this pamphlet to their local
school principal or counselor. Suggested donation: $5.
3. Now Available!
NARTH's own survey of 882 homosexually oriented individuals who have

Psychological Reports in June 2000.

Consumer Survey of Conversion Therapy Clients," is a study by Joseph
Nicolosi, Ph.D., A. Dean Byrd, Ph.D. and Richard W. Potts, M.A. Copies

Reorientation Psychotherapy." This peer-reviewed study was published in
Psychological Reports in April, 2000. Each pamphlet-form copy of this
article is available for a suggested donation of $5.

6. "In Layman's Language: What NARTH Found in its 'Survey on Change'."
This is an elaboration of the NARTH study which was published in June
2000 in Psychological Reports. In this 30-page, informal paper, we
describe our findings about sexual reorientation in greater detail, and
in language understandable by the casual reader. Self-esteem, sense of personal power,
and interpersonal
relationships substantially improved, even among those respondents who still
struggled to some degree with unwanted attractions. Simple language for the
layman, suited to doctoral dissertations, media reports. Suggested donation:
$10.
7. Questions and Answers on Homosexuality, Parts I and II
Two new, 6-page glossy fliers which answer many of the claims made by
gay activists when they promote gay-affirming programs in schools
and counseling programs. We address essential, basic questions such as these:
- Should public schools teach the value of sexual diversity?
- Are objections to homosexuality simply "ignorance and bigotry?"
- Is sexual-reorientation treatment unethical, since homosexuality is not listed in the diagnostic manual?
- Are parents "to blame" for their child's homosexuality?
- What makes some people dissatisfied as homosexuals, while others are "gay and proud"?
- Is gay "who a person really is"?
Suggested donation: $10.
8. "Understanding Same-Sex Attractions"
This 20-page booklet contains five easy-to-understand essays on male
homosexuality. Attractively packaged in a glossy vinyl organizer. Available in
quantities for school principals, pastors, church groups, conferences. Sections:
- Is there a Gay Gene?
