The Latinx LGBTQ+ youth group represents a range of sexual orientations and gender identities and expressions. Their diversity also includes the intersection with other aspects of their identity beyond race and ethnicity, such as religion, ability, and socioeconomic class. This factsheet focuses on group therapy as a culturally appropriate intervention and the role of clinicians in supporting Latinx LGBTQ+ youth dealing with chronic stressors to cultivate self-acceptance and affirm their sexual and gender
identity.
