ACEs in the LGBTQ Community

Robin MatthiesMember

Hi there, I was wondering if folks are either doing anything, or know of anyone who is, around how individuals who identify as LGBTQ are impacted by ACEs? A few questions I would have are:

Are there population specific screening tools? With additional measures specific to identity? (Some adversity experiences based on identity might be linked to bullying, lack of acceptance from family, friends, schools, churches, etc., homelessness due to being kicked out of the house, etc...)

Are we seeing that the LGBTQ community has overall higher ACE scores?

A colleague and I are starting to do some research on this but don't want to duplicate any efforts that are already exist. Thanks!
