Abstract

The purpose of this study is to determine whether there is a correlation between being part of a Gay- Straight Alliance during high school and a Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgendered, Queer, Questioning, and Intersex (LGBTQQI) individual's resilience. The results of this research can benefit not only members of the LGBTQQI community but also schools, the students themselves who may suffer, organizations and supporters of this community.
