Supporting the Sexual and Reproductive Health of Youth in Out-of-Home Care: A Guide for Caseworkers
|
|
Nilofer Ahsan |
This document is one of three in a compendium of sexual and reproductive health guidance and resources for child welfare jurisdictions from a national work group convened by the CSSP. The goal of this document is to provide information and resources to workers to help them effectively support youth (ages 10 to 21) on sexual and reproductive health issues. The other two documents in this series include a policy and practice framework for child welfare leaders and policy makers and practical guidance meant specifically for use by the youth themselves. Both this document and the one designed for youth are aligned with the recommendations on current best practices around sexual and reproductive health policy and practice contained in the policy framework. Includes LGBTQ+ considerations and resources. |

Surveying LGBTQ Youth In Foster Care: Lessons From Los Angeles
|
|
|
The objective of this report is to provide a methodology resource for those interested in learning more about LGBTQ youth in foster care in order to better meet their needs. This report will be useful to researchers interested in conducting traditional research as well as foster care systems who are adding sexual orientation, gender identity, and gender expression measures to their current internal research and evaluation efforts or administrative records. We describe and assess the methodology used in a Los Angeles County study which surveyed youth in foster care about their sexual orientation, gender identity and gender expression, other demographic characteristics, and experiences in foster care. We provide our survey instrument and recommended questions, summarize and assess our methodology in designing and conducting the survey, and review lessons that we drew from our experience. We hope this report will encourage further research on youth in foster care in general and LGBTQ youth in particular. |
