Mission: Exodus International was founded in 1976. Since then, it has grown to incorporate over 140 local Christian ministries in North America and is a founding member of The Exodus Global Alliance, which is comprised of Exodus Latin America, Exodus Europe, Exodus Asia Pacific, Exodus Brazil and the developing regions of China and Africa.
Exodus International North America, with headquarters in Orlando, Florida, oversees 140 agencies in the USA and Canada and in 2006 developed the Exodus Church Network with a goal of partnering with 10,000 churches by 2010.
We are a referral and information center for those affected by unwanted homosexuality, offering a wealth of printed resources, a free newsletter, testimonies, videos, books, CD's, and an annual four-day training conference for individuals struggling with same sex attraction issues, family members and friends, youth, pastors and counselors.
As someone who myself dealt with same sex attractions on a daily basis and then was helped by early Exodus International, I disagree wholeheartedly with the critic's review. The local ministry under guidance of one of the founders of Exodus was very helpful in my life and in the lives of the men and women who also obtained personal help for them. Unlike Chambers' assessment, we defy his so called percentage. Out of the 6 women in our discipleship year, 2 were married (to men), 3 are faithfully serving the Lord in their singleness and only one returned to gay sexual relationships...after nearly 30 years. In this case, the success rate was 83% or 5/6ths were able to leave homosexuality over the longterm.

Exodus International was dissolved by its board of directors in 2013. The board & their president admitted that it is not possible to convert homosexuals to heterosexuals, with their president admitting that at least 99.9% of their clients were never successful in losing their homosexual desires.
