ANONYMOUS FLASH POLL Was your mental health personally affected by the Trump Administration? YES » NO » I'd rather not say >> Arthur, Between the ongoing pandemic and unprecedented political polarization, we know times have been tough. A new research report in the Journal of Economics & Biology found that many within the LGBTQ+ community experienced aggravated mental distress during the Trump Presidency.[1] The study also found that in states where Trump won, the mental distress was much higher for LGBTQ+ people. We know just how difficult this period of time was -- and continues to be -- for our community. Because despite having a new pro-equality administration, the LGBTQ+ community is still reeling from an unprecedented wave of anti-LGBTQ+ bills in state legislatures across the country. On top of that, the CDC found that LGBTQ+ people are more likely to experience severe COVID-19 health outcomes due to increased underlying conditions. That’s why it’s so important to check-in on each other. Here at Equality California we are committed to serving our community and that starts with ensuring the well-being of our supporters! Please fill this survey out so we can better understand how best to serve this community: https://go.eqca.org/a/mental-health Your responses will be kept entirely confidential. Thank you for always helping our mission. We really appreciate it! - Equality California --- [1] Kuroki, Masanori. “The Rise in Extreme Mental Distress among LGBT People during Trump’s Rise and Presidency.” Economics & Human Biology, vol. 43, 2021.
