NEW RESEARCH


** LBQ girls and women of color overrepresented in child welfare and criminalization systems
------------------------------------------------------------

Lesbian, bisexual, and queer (LBQ) girls, particularly girls of color, are overrepresented in foster care and the carceral system. The proportion of Black and American Indian LBQ girls in foster care is four times higher than in the general population. In addition, one-third of incarcerated women are LBQ, which is 10 times the proportion of women who identify as LBQ in the U.S. population.
