| dc.description.notes | Overview: This joint policy report between two anti-violence coalitions based in the United States addresses the pervasive violence committed against lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer [LGBTQ] people both within their communities and relationships, and outside of them. Based on results of a survey, this report examines the gaps in the victims' services for LGBTQ people and suggests ways in which to address these gaps in necessary services.<br/ ><br/ >The results of this survey are presented in the report. The survey demonstrated that LGBTQ victims of violence did not have consistent access to culturally appropriate services. Too often, non-LGBTQ specific victim assistance agencies cannot meet the needs of LGBTQ crime victims and specific targeted services lack resources and funding.<br/ ><br/ >In order to address these gaps in victim support for LGBTQ people, the report makes recommendations for: greater collaboration amongst LGBTQ anti-violence programs and non-LGBTQ anti-violence programs; the provision of training for those in non-LGBTQ anti-violence programs in LGBTQ specific support; policy and legislative change ensuring equality; Increasing public awareness about the extent and impact of violence and victimisation on LGBTQ individuals; and an increase state and federal funding for services, training and research on the victimisation of LGBTQ people. | en |
