Abstract
Lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender/two spirit, gender expansive, queer/questioning, intersex, asexual/agender, and pansexual/poly and other queer and trans identities (LGBTGEQIAP+) persons experience disparities in life events when compared to their hetero-affectional counterparts. When examining the disparities, some common themes emerge. The LGBTGEQIAP + population continues to face the following challenges: affordable and affirming healthcare, trans and gender non-conforming youth rights, employment discrimination, unhoused, and interpersonal violence, and sexual abuse. Although research identifies many issues, it is often lacking in how to advocate for the needs of these individuals. Our analysis suggests that social justice-based interventions are necessary to make the largest impact for this community.
