Abstract
Affirmative services require health professionals to be aware of sexual orientation and gender identity, regardless of their own self-identities. Improving Emotional and Behavioral Outcomes for LGBT Youth: A Guide for Professionals suggests that such services also require the knowledge and skills to work competently, offering culturally and linguistically effective services and supports in complex and meaningful ways.
