Presentation by Pacific NorthWell's LGBT+ affirmative counselor, Kristen Martinez, M.Ed., Ed.S., LMHCA, NCC, of a research proposal about discrimination against transgender-identified individuals within the larger LGBT (lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender) community as a whole.
Gay, Lesbian, and Transgender in the workplace: Speaking out about inclusion
Learning objective: Address workplace techniques to overcome those stereotypes
How do we honor individual beliefs and choice to protect business values and morale? Diversity and inclusion practices represent a corporation’s capacity to utilize an array of talents, cultures, and experiences. This allows organizations to gain access to creativity and problem solving far beyond what would be available in a monocultural environment. With this commitment, there is also a clear business value system that respects the rights of all to work in a safe environment
that values their contributions. 70 percent of surveyed LGBT community members report that they feel discriminated against and bullied at work. Over half have had to leave workplaces at least once in their careers because of related issues. Join us in this workshop for a candid discussion about unique challenges and explore strategies to create a LGBT friendly work environment.
At the end of this workshop:
a. Identify challenges and issue specific to the LGBT community (according to individual experiences and surveys)
b. Explore statistics and real world examples
c. Explore best practices in building friendly LGBT environments

Lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) people are associated with certain stereotypes - conventional, formulaic generalizations, opinions, or images based on their sexual orientation or gender identity. Stereotypical perceptions may be acquired through interactions with parents, teachers, peers and the mass media, or, more generally, through a lack of firsthand familiarity, resulting in an increased reliance on generalizations

During a UN-sponsored seminar on sexual violence against men and boys in conflict Jane Sigmon of the US State Department discussed some of the research gaps that exist in terms of male-directed sexual violence.
Despite recent advances in LGBT legal rights, few workplaces are fully inclusive and welcoming for their LGBT employees. Jessica Halem was hired to lead Harvard Medical School in developing sustainable structures of inclusion to respond to the needs of students, faculty, trainees and staff. Learn how Halem’s engagement with stakeholders, departments and hospitals has created meaningful change at Harvard Medical School and can act as an example for other organizations.
In this session, participants will learn:
Who makes up the LGBT community?
What are everyday acts of inclusion that can be implemented right away?
How do you go beyond parties and t-shirts to ensure real change for years to come?
During a UN-sponsored seminar on sexual violence against men and boys in conflict Dr. Chris Dolan and Alastair Hilton highlight the challenges of determining the scope of male-directed sexual violence in conflict. Chris Dolan is the director of the Refugee Law Project in Uganda. Alastair Hilton is a founder of First Step Cambodia, an NGO dedicated to providing services to male survivors of sexual violence and their supporters.
This second practice theory course builds on SWK 501, Generalist Practice with
Individuals, Families and Small Groups, extending the concepts of strengths based
practice to work with organizations and communities. The relationships between
communities and organizations and at risk populations are infused throughout the
course. Knowledge, values and skills will be obtained throughout the course. These
will be gained through readings, oral and written assignments, and videos

Its rise to prominence, especially in Western universities after 1990, has been noted as a success of deconstructionism. Sometimes, gender studies is offered together with study of sexuality.

2. Introduction
• Transgender persons “experience a
mismatch between their biological sex and
their psychological awareness of gender,
feeling more comfortable in the identity of the
other gender” (Wester et al., 2010).
• Though studies of LGB (lesbian, gay,
bisexual) individuals are common, knowledge
and research of the life experiences of
transgender persons is needed in order to
more effectively counsel these clients.
3. Literature Review
• Stigma is “a mark of disgrace associated with a particular
circumstance, quality, or person” (“Stigma”, n.d.).
• Though T is included in the LGBT umbrella, transgender
people still experience stigma (Singh et al., 2011).
• “[T]ransgender populations experience more intense
discrimination and victimization than LGB populations
because they challenge cultural norms related to both
sexuality and gender” (Clements-Noelle et al., 2006).
• Being both non-trans and non-hetero enables LGB persons to
form a close ingroup, whereas T persons may remain in the
outgroup (Morrison, 2010).
4. Research Question
• “How do transgender individuals
experience their positioning within the
LGBT community with regard to stigma?”
5. Method
• A phenomenological research design was
chosen in order to more fully understand
the essence of the lived experiences of
transgender individuals as members of the
LGBT community.
6. Participants
• Participants were self-identified
transgender individuals living in the
Gainesville, Florida, area who were willing
to describe their lived experiences in the
LGBT community.
7. Procedure
• Snowball sampling was used to identify
participants.
• Participants from the local gay club, UC, and
the local university’s Pride Student Union
organization were interviewed, then asked to
give names of other transgender persons
who could potentially become participants.
• This research study was reviewed and
approved by the IRB.
8. Instrumentation
• Semi-structured interviews were conducted with the
participants. Sample questions include:
• “How has your status as transgender facilitated your
involvement with the LGBT community?”
• “Do you find yourself a valued member of the LGBT
community? Describe what this feels like for you.”
• “Have you ever felt excluded from the LGBT
community? If so, what was this like? If not, have you
ever felt that someone else has been excluded?”
• “Is there a difference with whom you are close with in
the LGBT community with regard to their sexual
orientations and gender identities?”
