A Qualitative Examination of Homeless LGBTQ+ Adults in Arkansas
2020
Overview
In the United States, LGBTQ+ individuals are disproportionately represented among thehomeless population. While homeless, members of the LGBTQ+ community are more likely toface discrimination, stigmatization, and victimization than their heterosexual counterparts.Although previous research on homelessness among the LGBTQ+ community has beeninsightful, we know little about the lived experiences of homeless LGBTQ+ adults in Arkansas.Therefore, the current study sought to understand the life experiences of LGBTQ+ adults inArkansas who are or were homeless at one time in their adult lives. More specifically, this studyfocused on how individuals enter and exit homelessness, incidents of physical and sexualvictimization while homeless, and evaluated the ability of LGBTQ+ individuals to obtainresources in the community. Through a grounded theory approach, in-depth, face-to-faceinterviews were conducted with nine LGBTQ+ homeless individuals in Arkansas. A snowballsampling strategy was used to recruit participants. The implications of this study includedproviding insight on LGBTQ+ homelessness and improving resource obtainment in Arkansas.
