COMMENTARY: A call for solidarity with people who use drugs and queer and trans people
This commentary highlights the importance of fostering solidarity with scapegoated communities through a shared valuing of bodily autonomy.
ZINE & POSTER: Queer and trans cannabis use and mental health
Informed by our qualitative findings, we put together key literature, recommendations, and a discussion cheat sheet for queer and trans youth and the mental health providers looking to support them.
QUALITATIVE STUDY: A strengths-based qualitative study of cannabis use among queer and trans youth
This paper looked at how queer and trans youth use strategies to survive and thrive, and how cannabis may feature among these. It directly challenges the field's hyperfocus on queer and trans struggling.
QUANTITATIVE STUDY: LGB youth's depression at age 15 more likely to predict later cannabis use
This longitudinal study following adolescents at 13, 15 and 17 years revealed particularly strong associations between depression and later cannabis use, specifically among LGB teens.
