Jewish Institute for Global Awareness (JIFGA), known before 2015 as Jews Offering New Alternatives for Healing (JONAH), was a Jewish non-profit organization which offered conversion therapy to persons who sought sexual orientation change. JONAH described itself as "dedicated to educating the world-wide Jewish community about the social, cultural and emotional factors which lead to same-sex attractions". JONAH's leaders disagree with the consensus of mainstream science and the world's major mental health organizations who say that non-heterosexual sexual orientation is not a disorder.

  • Jews Offering New Alternatives to Homosexuality (JONAH) war eine jüdische Vereinigung mit Sitz in Jersey City, mit dem Ziel von „Prävention, Eingreifen und Heilen der der homosexuellen Attraktivität zugrunde liegenden Umstände“. Die Organisation benutzte die Techniken der „Reparativen Therapie“, die von allen führenden internationalen psychiatrischen und psychologischen Fachgesellschaften abgelehnt wird, da sie im Widerspruch zu den heute in Psychiatrie und Psychologie etablierten Auffassungen von Homosexualität stehen und schädigende Wirkung für die Therapierten haben können. 2015 wurde JONAH auf gerichtliche Anweisung aufgelöst und den „Therapeuten“ der Organisation die weitere Bewerbung und Ausübung derartiger Praktiken untersagt.

JONAH's leaders disagree with the consensus of mainstream science and the world's major mental health organizations who say that non-heterosexual sexual orientation is not a disorder. In 2015, a landmark trial found that JONAH's claims to be able to change sexual orientation constituted consumer fraud. The organization was ordered to pay restitution to the plaintiffs and shut down within thirty days. Eleven days after the verdict, the founders created a conversion therapy organization called JIFGA using JONAH's assets. In June 2019, a New Jersey judge ordered JIFGA to shut down within thirty days and pay $3.5 million to victims. (en)
