Dear Generations Participants,
As we approach the busy holiday season, we wanted to take a moment to reflect on the progress we’ve made with the Generations study. It is hard to imagine that we have completed three waves of data collection. Knowledge gained from Generations has been used to produce journal articles and reports accessed by people around the world and to lay important groundwork for policy changes to improve the lives of LGBT people (you can review our publications on our website www.generations-study.com). For example, since our last newsletter, Generations data have been used for journal articles about generational differences in the experience of sexual identity development, minority stress and health. The data have also been used in an op-ed article about the legacy of AIDS, specifically in regard to the way that trauma and shame get in the way of HIV prevention. As always, we would like to emphasize that these publications would not be possible without your participation and commitment to the Generations Study. Thank you!
Happy Holidays
