Handbook of Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, and Transgender Administration and Policy

Recording issues and obstacles as well as groundbreaking victories in the recognition of gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgender (GLBT) rights in politics and policy, this landmark handbook introduces core considerations necessary for prompting governmental initiatives and social structures to better serve the GLBT population. It addresses surfacing and often underemphasized administrative concerns, such as changes in marriage and human rights laws, the growing recognition of transgender rights in the U.S., and issues of youth and aging within the gay demographic. The impressive scope of this handbook will serve anyone involved in GLBT public administrative theory and practice at any level.
