"I didn't think people would take me seriously" : the help-seeking strategies, experiences, and preferences of LGBTQ survivors of domestic violence Carrie Lippy and Emily M. Waters - Harrisburg, PA : National LGBTQ Institute on IPV, 2021 - electronic document (66 pages) ; PDF file

This report builds on earlier research examining services provided by LGBTQ-specific agencies (Lippy et al.,2017). However, no research to date has explored and contrasted the experiences LGBTQ survivors have at non-LGBTQ and LGBTQ-specific organizations. Nor has research examined LGBTQ survivors’ preferences regarding where to receive support. The current study addressed this gap by examining the help-seeking experiences and preferences of a large sample of LGBTQ survivors accessing the National Domestic Violence Hotline website. (From the Introduction). Record #7166
