Our research utilizes qualitative, mixed-methods, community-based, and action-oriented approaches. Our research projects investigate and address the mental health and social determinants of health among 2SLGBTQ+ youth and young adults, with the goal to create evidence-informed recommendations to prevent, reduce, and end 2SLGBTQ+ youth homelessness.
The 2SLGBTQ+ Youth Health and Homelessness Research Lab, led by Dr. Alex Abramovich, applies community-based, action-oriented, mixed-methods research to investigate and address the health and social inequities and systemic and structural barriers to health, wellbeing, and housing experienced by 2SLGBTQ+ youth and young adults. We aim to provide evidence-informed recommendations for innovative solutions to prevent, reduce, and end 2SLGBTQ+ youth homelessness nationally and internationally.
