Description: This virtual panel will be discussing the new National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine consensus study report that identifies the need for heightened attention to the social and structural inequities that exist for LGBTQI+ people. The authors of this report argue for new research on the full range of sexual and gender diversity. Our panelists and authors will highlight the ways in which these issues relate to youth development and education. Read more about this report in this Youth-Nex blog post.
