This is the first hands-on guide for providing health and mental health care to lesbian and gay youth and young adults. Although it focuses on adolescents, the information is relevant for any age group. In addition to specific guidelines for care and for approaching such sensitive topics as sexual behavior, substance abuse, and suicide, the book includes a comprehensive review of the literature and the most up-to-date information for providers, researchers, educators, and general readers alike. This book also includes the first guidelines (clinical care protocols) on primary care, mental health care, HIV medical and psychosocial care for lesbian and gay youth, and HIV counseling and testing for adolescents. There is extensive discussion of the social and health effects of stigmatized identity in the context of adolescent development.

Caitlin C. Ryan is a clinical social worker and the director of AIDS Policy Center, and the author of AIDS: A Public Health Challenge.

Donna Futterman is associate professor of pediatrics at Albert Einstein College of Medicine, and director of the Adolescent AIDS Program at Montefiore Medical Center.
