CHP 682 LGBT Health Disparities 3.0 Credits
This course is intended as a first survey course that covers various health disparities in the LGBT community ranging from HIV/AIDS to intimate partner violence. The paradigm that we will adopt as the foundation for our weekly discussions will emphasize how unhealthy behaviors and outcomes are related to stress and stigma that LGBT persons experience as a marginalized community. This paradigm will be discussed in the context of sexual minorities being but one class of minorities that suffer similar discrimination and resultant stress: We will draw parallels to earlier findings on disparities among racial/ethnic minorities.
