“Somos Latinxs” is a statement about the importance of centering theoretical and empirical writings on the social and behavioral health conditions of sexual and gender diverse (SGD) Latinxs.
This special issue offers the first publication devoted to SGD communities in a flagship journal of a national ethnic minority psychological association and is a major step forward in representation and validation of the unique intersectional lived experiences of SGD people of color.
The overarching goal of this special issue is to forge new pathways that foster authenticity of SGD Latinxs lived experiences by illuminating and honoring how race and ethnicity, sexual orientation, and gender identity, in addition to many other social factors, intersect to create dynamic cultural experiences linked to psychological outcomes.
