“Minority Stress, Relationship Satisfaction, and Psychological Distress in Same-Gender Relationships ”
Dear participant,
I am a doctoral candidate in the department of Special Education, Rehabilitation, and Counseling at Auburn University. I would like to invite you to participate in my research study assessing how certain factors affect psychological distress. You may participate if you are at least 18 years old and are currently in a romantic relationship with someone of the same gender as yourself.
Participants are asked to complete the online survey, which is expected to take 5-10 minutes.
There are no anticipated risks for taking this survey. Participation in this study is anonymous and voluntary. If you experience psychological or emotional discomfort, you may inform the primary investigator about your concerns. You may skip any question that you do not wish to answer or that makes you feel uncomfortable. You are also free at any time to choose to end your participation. There will be no negative effects if you choose to skip a question or discontinue your participation in the study. If you choose to end your participation early, all data collected will be erased.
Participating in, but not completing, this survey will result in no direct benefits to you, although you may find it interesting to reflect on your identity, romantic relationships, and how they affect your mental health. Your participation in this project may help the researchers develop a better understanding of how identity openness, stigma, and relationship satisfaction affect mental health.
If you complete the survey in its entirety, you will be able to enter your email address in a separate survey link, which will be provided at the end of the survey, to receive a $5 Amazon gift card (as funding allows) as thanks for completing it.
If you would like to know more information about this study, an information letter can be obtained by clicking on this link or the link provided below. If you decide to participate after reading the letter, you can access the survey by clicking the arrow at the bottom of the page.
You may also forward this information to others you believe would be eligible and interested in participating.

Good day! I'm a graduate student at the University of Arizona, enrolled in a course that focuses on students with disabilities. For our final paper, we have been asked to write about an intersectional issue related to SPED students and I chose LGBTQIA+ rights because I am trans and Deaf myself. As part of that, we're asked to interview community members, educators, parents, and students to get an understanding of current narratives and experiences. Specific to this group, I'm looking for parents of LGBTQIA+ students who also have a disability of some type (physical, intellectual, learning, etc) -- primarily in the K-12 grade band but college age may also work. The professor did not put any constraint on the type of disability, so it's really open to all as a broad review of what education looks like for diverse students. The "interview" would be over email with some guiding questions to get an understanding of the parents' experiences and perspectives on what is happening with their disabled and LGBTQIA+ children -- parents are welcome to add any other information they feel is relevant. While I am required to provide a summary of each interview, I am not required to share any interview materials and all information (in the paper itself, summaries, etc) will be anonymous. There is a bit of time pressure as the semester will end in mid-December but the paper has to be turned in before that so the sooner I can complete interviews, the better. Anyone who is interested and wants to respond to the interview questions, or wants to email me to ask for more information before deciding, can email me at winchester.k.t@gmail.com

Greetings,
My name is Olivia Hucks and I am the community outreach coordinator for Project PASSION, which is a research project led by Dr. Dominic Parrott at Georgia State University in Atlanta, GA. The project is funded by the National Institutes of Health. Given the aims of PFLAG Tacoma, I think you would be interested in learning about this project.
We know that when people have healthy intimate relationships, their overall mental and physical health is good as well. Our primary goal is to conduct research that gives back to the LGBTQ+ community. Indeed, we hope that this information can be used to develop culturally-sensitive recommendations and programs to promote healthy intimate relationships for LGBTQ+ people.
Thus, in our project, we want to learn more about what can lead to healthy, and unhealthy, intimate relationships for LGBTQ+ people. Our project focuses on factors that lead to negative health outcomes as well as factors that promote resilience. We are seeking participants for a study that is completed entirely online.
Who is a good fit for the study? The study may be a good fit someone if:
· They and their partner are both 21 years or older
· They identify as LGBTQ+ and are in a relationship
· They currently drink alcohol (i.e., they are not in recovery)
· People of all genders and sexual orientations are welcome
What would happen if someone enrolls in the study? We invite all interested people to call or visit our webpage to learn more (see contact information below). Each partner will earn a minimum of $40 for completing questionnaires and meeting with our research staff a video call (2 hours). Each partner can also earn up to an additional $145 for completing all online surveys (Study 2).
Our team is very excited about this project. We believe that it can provide much needed data that will ultimately help to promote healthier intimate relationships for LGBTQ+ people, which again is one of the most important predictors of a person’s general physical and mental health.
