LGBTQ+ Accelerated Call

LGBTQ+ Accelerated Call

Over the past decade, the LGBTQ+ community has made significant legal, political, and cultural gains in the United States. However, in the past year alone, more than 100 new bills and/or amendments have been proposed across the nation with far-reaching implications to LGBTQ+ people. This special supplemental U-LINK call is being issued to harness the power of interdisciplinary collaboration to understand and address the immediate and longitudinal impact of this emerging legislation.
