Resource List for GLBTQ Youth, their Families, and Allies - GLBTQ youth, their families, supportive allies, and health care providers may have difficulty locating quality information related to the health care needs for this group of adolescents and young adults. While not inclusive of every potential GLBTQ resource, our goal is to provide an annotated resource that is informative, comprehensive, and relevant. While we have made every attempt to properly assess each resource, we cannot be responsible for the independent content of each item listed. This list will be updated periodically to ensure information being as current as possible. You may copy and distribute this list as needed.

Resource List for Health Professionals serving GLBTQ Youth - GLBTQ youth, their families, supportive allies, and health care providers may have difficulty locating quality information related to the health needs of this group of adolescents and young adults. While not inclusive of every potential GLBTQ resource, our goal is to provide an annotated resource list that is informative, comprehensive, and relevant in the care of GLBTQ youth. This information is organized with professional resources listed first, including peer-reviewed articles, book chapters, and websites. A separate list for GLBTQ youth, their families, and allies is available separately. While we have made every attempt to properly assess each resource, we cannot be responsible for the independent content of each item listed. This list will be updated periodically to ensure information being as current as possible. Your feedback is welcomed and appreciated.
