A team of ecological-community psychologists from the Michigan State University Department of Psychology have received a $65,000 grant from Blue Cross Blue Shield of Michigan Foundation to assess LGBTQ+ health disparities and variations in healthcare access in Michigan.
This year long study will look at the specific risk and protective factors related to the health and healthcare experiences of Michigan’s LGBTQ+ residents. The researchers will use community-engaged dissemination methods to share the results of this project with healthcare providers across Michigan.
