Young, Disabled and LGBT+
Routledge (Verlag)
978-0-367-18814-6 (ISBN)
This volume features original research and writing into lives that are often misunderstood, marginalised and under-represented in research. It is framed with artwork, poetry and writing from young disabled LGBT+ people, and centralises the voices and lives of young disabled LGBT+ people throughout. Drawing from disciplines including: sociology, psychology, disability and youth studies, and with contributions from practitioners, it examines experiences and research from a number of perspectives, such as education, personal lives and activism.
Featuring work from the UK, Canada, United States, India and Australia, it is a timely and topical book which will appeal to scholars particularly interested in sexuality, gender, disability and youth studies; professionals within health, education, social work and youth work who aim to understand and support young disabled LGBT+ people; and young people themselves.
Alex Toft is a Research Fellow in the Nottingham Centre for Children, Young People and Families at Nottingham Trent University. His research focuses upon sexuality, gender, disability, spirituality and identity. His publications include Bisexuality, Religion and Spirituality: Critical Perspectives (2020, with Andrew Yip). Anita Franklin is a Professor of Childhood Studies at the University of Portsmouth. Her research focuses predominantly on disabled children and young people and their experiences of: decision-making, education, health and social care provision, child protection and issues of inequality and inclusion.
