LGBTQ DV Targeted Recommendation: Ensure Family-Provider Wages and Benefits in order to Recruit and Retain Qualified Staff Members from Diverse LGBTQ Communities

General Material
Published Date
September, 2016

This targeted recommendation advocates for domestic violence and anti-violence non-profits to address the lack of LGBTQ staff by ensuring family-provider wages for all employees. This recommendation seeks to address the socio-economic challenges faced by LGBTQ people as a result of systemic homophobia and transphobia, and can become barriers to LGBTQ people seeking and retaining employment in non-profits that do not compensate them adequately.
