A Study on Lesbian, Bisexual & Queer Latinas

Calling all Lesbian, Bisexual and Queer Latinas !!! for a research study on their experiences. The study is specifically focused on how Latinas negotiate their sexuality when it comes to family, immigration and building healthy relationships in the United States. I started this project because I am committed to increasing the visibility of these women in the academy and to developing work that centers women's experiences in order to increase our visibility and level of importance. I am currently looking for Latinas interested in participating in this very important work. All I would need is approximately 1 -2 hours of your time on a day of your choice where we can sit down and talk in confidence about your experiences. The interviews can be done in person or over the phone and I am offering participants $20.00 in compensation for their time. If you or anyone you know is interested in participating please contact me at your convenience by email at katie.acosta@uconn.edu or by phone at 860-933-8082. This study has been approved by the institutional review board at the University of Connecticut.
