Information for researchersThe purpose of VUSNAPS is to understand the different kinds of personal relationships that older lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, gender nonconforming and nonbinary adults in the US South draw on to provide support in life.
We will use this data to examine how life events affect those relationships and the health of older LGBTQ people. We are interested in identifying factors that exacerbate health inequalities and those that help older LGBTQ adults thrive in later life. If you are a researcher interested in using the deidentified survey data, please email the Principal Investigator, Dr. Tara McKay, at tara.mckay@vanderbilt.edu |
