2019 Black and African American LGBTQ+ Youth Report

Produced by the HRC Foundation

The following report represents data from our 2018 Youth Report that has been archived. Click here to view our newest 2023 Black LGBTQ+ Youth Report.

In 2017, the Human Rights Campaign Foundation partnered with researchers at the University of Connecticut to conduct a groundbreaking survey of over 12,000 LGBTQ+ youth and capture their experiences in their families, schools, social circles and communities. More than 1,600 Black and African American LGBTQ+ youth responded to the survey.

This resource presents data collected from these youth, shedding light on their challenges and triumphs encountered while navigating multiple, intersecting identities. This report utilizes the full sample (any respondent who answered more than 10 percent of the survey) and provides more detail than is captured in the 2018 Youth Report.
