Health & HIV/AIDS

LGBT people face disparities in mental and physical health outcomes. Minority stress that stems from anti-LGB stigma and prejudice plays a major role in explaining these health disparities. We study health care access and outcomes among LGBT people in addition to examining the impact of health policies on LGBT people.
