This timely volume is a guide to what is most essential to know about the crisis of housing insecurity among LGBTQIA+ populations in the United States, with a focus on interventions and solutions.Research consistently shows that LGBTQIA+ disproportionately experience housing insecurity, homelessness, and other housing needs at all stages of the life course. In this volume, the authors integrate and build on the research findings and recommendations from social scientists; housing, public health, and social service professionals and practitioners; legal scholars and policy analysts; and others on this topic, to explain what we know about housing insecurity among LGBTQIA+ populations, what we need to know, and what we can — and must — do to end it.Addressing housing insecurity among LGBTQIA+ populations is especially urgent now. First, housing insecurity and chronic homelessness in the US are at an all-time high. Second, housing insecurity in the US among LGBTQIA+ populations is more severe than in other high-income countries and more difficult to address. Third, LGBTQIA+ populations in the US and globally have been targets of an unprecedented political backlash over the last few years that resulted in a record number of state and federal bills attacking the rights of LGBTQIA+ populations.Addressing Housing Insecurity Among LGBTQIA+ Populations in the United States: Research, Policy, and Practice provides a comprehensive yet concise review of the subject, informed by scholarship on the causes, impacts of, and efforts to implement effective solutions to housing insecurity, and offers a research, practice, and policy agenda to address this crisis. The book is written to be accessible to diverse academic and professional audiences including higher education faculty, undergraduate and masters-level students, and educators, practitioners, and researchers in social work, public health, public policy, human services, psychology, sociology, education, housing and poverty studies, LGBTQIA+/queer/trans studies, family studies, and social justice studies. It can be a useful resource for policymakers; housing management and housing services professionals; LGBTQIA+ advocates and community organizers; and others who want to understand and end housing insecurity among LGBTQIA+ populations.
