Conversion therapy—a practice aimed at changing someone’s sexual orientation or gender identity—has been widely discredited and is banned in 22 states and the District of Columbia.

But more than 1,300 practitioners still offer conversion therapy in the U.S., according to a new report shared exclusively with TIME.

“It is shocking to still see so many different conversion therapy programs across the U.S., because all those programs are fraudulent,” says California Rep. Ted Lieu, who in June introduced a bill to ban conversion therapy at the federal level.

“There is no scientific or medical basis for conversion therapy. It is a huge scam.”

The new report comes from the Trevor Project, a nonprofit that aims to prevent suicide among LGBTQ youth.
