Call for Research
LGBTQ Youth
During the month of June IssueLab will be focusing on research that addresses issues related to Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgendered, Queer, and Questioning Youth. This age group is experiencing unprecendented levels of acceptance and expression while at the same time facing ongoing discrimination and isolation. IssueLab is looking for nonprofit produced research on this dynamic topic.
If you are a nonprofit and are doing work in the field of LGBTQ youth -- please register at IssueLab today. We are asking that organizations list their research with IssueLab by the last week in May.
Our LGBTQ Youth CloseUp will include research on the following topics:
- LGBTQ Youth cultures
- Cyberworlds and LGBTQ Youth
- LGBTQ Youth resilience
- LGBTQ Youth of color
- LGBTQ Youth in rural environments
- Homelessness among GLBT Youth
- LGBTQ Youth suicide
- Special health issues faced by LGBTQ Youth
- Making schools safe for LGBTQ Youth
Expose Your Work to a Broader Audience in 3 Easy Steps
IssueLab is a free service to all participating nonprofits. The process for listing your research takes about five minutes.
- Register your nonprofit with IssueLab through our simple web-based form. You will receive an email asking that you verify your registration. Once this is done, you are ready to list research.
- Log into your account and add as many publications as you would like. Once we have approved a publication your listing will be "live" and available to the public.
- Edit, hide, delete or add as many listings as you wish. (You can also track the number of users downloading your work and visiting your organizational profile by simply logging into your IssueLab account.)
That's it! Adding your research to IssueLab's CloseUp means that it will get featured in next month's eNews, regular RSS feeds and any outreach we do to blogs, journalists and digital librarians.
