As studies emerge to help us understand the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on every facet of modern life, it is critical that the effect of the pandemic on the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer, Intersexual, and Asexual (LGBTQIA+) communities not be overlooked. While some pioneering studies analyzing the impacts of the pandemic upon LGBTQIA+ communities have been conducted, and some efforts are being made to collect data which can impact the development of policy, reliable data resources are limited to a few enterprising states, and this data has not been systematically shared with public policy makers or with the public to date. COVID-19, the LGBTQIA+ Community, and Public Policy explores precisely how the pandemic has affected these communities, and what concrete steps need to be taken to ameliorate its effects. As the chapters in this book demonstrate, the unusual nature of the pandemic has significantly impacted state and local LGBTQIA+ infrastructure, leading to closure of some institutions and reductions in functioning for many others. The contributors examine the ways in which for LGBTQIA+ persons, the pandemic's impact on public healthcare systems and the global economy has highlighted preexisting challenges in accessing adequate healthcare (including mental healthcare and substance abuse treatment), employment, education, secure housing, and other societal resources. Together, these chapters present a state-of-the-field overview of health disparities in the LGBTQIA+ community and demonstrate the particular need for serious, timely, public policy interventions"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Sexual minorities $x Social conditions $y 21st century. 650 0 $a Sexual minorities $x Health and hygiene. 650 0 $a Political planning. 650 0 $a COVID-19 Pandemic, 2020- $x Influence. 650 7 $a Influence (Literary, artistic, etc.) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00972484 650 7 $a Political planning. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01069460 650 7 $a Sexual minorities $x Health and hygiene. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01984687 648 7 $a Since 2000 $2 fast 700 1 $a Swan, Wallace, $e editor. 776 08 $i Online version: $t COVID-19, the LGBTQIAa+ community, and public policy $d New York, NY : Routledge, 2023 $z 9781003270713 $w (DLC) 2022021074 941 $a 1 952 $l PLAX964 $d 20230718100432.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=EB08F1C6214711EEBC7340321FECA4DB 994 $a 92 $b IOHInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
