520 _aThis is a report about bias-related incidents targeting lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) individuals in the U.S. Its author is the National Coalition of Anti-Violence Programs (NCAVP), a network of over 25 anti-violence organizations that monitor and respond to incidents of bias and domestic violence, HIV-related violence, pickup crimes, rape, sexual assault, and other forms of violence affecting the LGBT community. Twelve NCAVP members collected detailed information about anti- LGBT incidents occurring in their cities and regions throughout 2005 and 2006, and this data constitutes the basis for most of the analysis in this report. The regions participating in this year's report are Chicago, IL, Colorado, Columbus, OH, Houston, TX, Kansas City, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, New York, NY, Pennsylvania, San Francisco, CA, and Vermont. This edition of the report also represents the first year of participation by Long Island Gay and Lesbian Youth (LIGALY) in Long Island, New York, the Milwaukee Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender Community Center's Anti-Violence Program and the Wingspan Anti-Violence Program in Tucson, Arizona. It is important to read this report not as the latest in a continuing series of linked reports, but as the latest in a series of year-to-year analyses of anti-LGBT incidents in participating regions. This is in part because the cities and regions represented in each year's report is often slightly different. NCAVP's prior annual reports provide additional information and context on the issue of anti-LGBT violence, but do not have statistical bearing on this edition. However, local statistics and narratives can be examined for regional context and trends. Ultimately, we expect that this report will not only draw attention to the incidents and trends it documents, but that it will also highlight the need for more comprehensive responses to bias violence at the community level and assist NCAVP in advocating for those creating such efforts.--EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
