Thank you for sharing your story. The experiences of LGBTQ+ people in healthcare, education, housing, employment, public accommodations, and other areas of daily life are critical to informing policy discussions and advancing meaningful change. Too often, decisions impacting LGBTQ+ communities are made without a clear understanding of the real barriers, harms, and challenges people face. This form is intended to help document those experiences so they can inform advocacy efforts, policy development, public education, and recommendations aimed at improving equity, safety, and opportunity for LGBTQ+ people across Connecticut.

You may share as much or as little information as you feel comfortable providing. All information submitted through this form will be kept confidential and will not be publicly shared in a personally identifiable way. Responses may be reviewed in aggregate to identify patterns, systemic issues, and areas of concern, but individual stories will only be attributed or shared externally if you specifically consent to that use. Protecting the privacy and safety of participants is extremely important to us.
