The Committee on Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender Concerns mission is to:
  • study and evaluate on an ongoing basis how the issues and concerns of lesbian, gay male, bisexual, and transgender psychologists can best be dealt with;


  • encourage objective and unbiased research in areas relevant to lesbian, gay male, bisexual, and transgender adults and youths, and the social impact of such research;


  • examine the consequences of inaccurate information and stereotypes about lesbian, gay male, bisexual, and transgender adults and youths in clinical practice;


  • develop educational materials for distribution to psychologists and others; and


  • make recommendations regarding the integration of these issues into the APA's activities to further the cause of civil and legal rights of lesbian, gay male, bisexual, and transgender psychologists within the profession (Association Rule 150-4).
