Homelessness poses risks to the health and safety of young adults; particularly among sexual and gender minority (SGM) young adults. The current study sought to better understand service use and perceived safety in community and service settings among SGM and cisgender heterosexual (cis-hetero) young adults experiencing homelessness. Data come from a mixed-method, ecological momentary assessment study (n = 80; 43% sexual minority; 10% gender minority) in Los Angeles, California. Participants reported their current location (service vs. nonservice setting) and perceived safety. Multilevel modeling examined associations between identity, location, and perceived safety; qualitative interviews with 20 SGM participants added context to quantitative findings. Overall, service location was associated with greater perceived safety (β = .27, p < .001). Compared to cis-hetero participants, cisgender sexual minorities (β = −.23, p = .03) and sexual and gender minorities (β = −.50, p = .002) reported lower perceived safety in service settings (vs. nonservice settings). Qualitative interviews revealed themes and subthemes detailing safe/unsafe spaces and interpersonal conflict in the community, and relationships with staff, peers, transphobia, and positive experiences in service settings.

无家可归的年轻人在社区和服务环境中的安全感:性和性别认同的差异

无家可归对年轻人的健康和安全构成威胁;特别是在性和性别少数群体 (SGM) 的年轻人中。当前的研究旨在更好地了解 SGM 和无家可归的顺性别异性恋 (cis-hetero) 年轻人在社区和服务环境中的服务使用和感知安全。数据来自一项混合方法的生态瞬时评估研究(n = 80; 43% 的性少数;10% 的性别少数群体)在加利福尼亚州洛杉矶。参与者报告了他们当前的位置(服务与非服务设置)和感知的安全性。多层次建模检查了身份、位置和感知安全之间的关联;对 20 名 SGM 参与者的定性访谈为定量调查结果增添了背景。总体而言,服务位置与更高的感知安全性相关(β  = .27,p  < .001)。与顺式异性恋参与者相比,顺式性少数群体 ( β  = −.23, p  = .03) 以及性和性别少数群体 ( β  = −.50, p = .002) 报告在服务环境中感知到的安全性较低(与非服务环境相比)。定性访谈揭示了主题和子主题,详细描述了安全/不安全空间和社区中的人际冲突,以及与员工、同龄人的关系、跨性别恐惧症和服务环境中的积极体验。
