AJPH dossier on the erasure of the sexual orientation question from the national survey of older Americans Act participants.(The American Journal of Public Health )

In March 2017, the Administration for Community Living (ACL) in the Department of Health and Human Services (USDHHS) announced that it would exclude the single question about sexual orientation (SO) that had been introduced at the federal level in 2014 in the National Survey of Older Americans Act Participants (NSOAAP). SAMPLING LGB PERSONS Randall Sell (p.1212), who created LGBTData.com, summarizes the challenges (i.e., sample size and statistical power, sensitive questions, validity and reliability, and cost) and solutions (i.e., oversampling and pooling data) related to SO and gender identity (SOGI) questions. Karen Loewy (p.1217), Laura Durso (p.12I9), and Gary Gates ip.1220) mention that LGBT-related initiatives were abrogated in 2017 in the Centers for Independent Living Program Performance Report at the Department of Housing and Urban Development, and in the 2020 Census and American Community Survey, and LGBT people and issues are no longer mentioned on the White House Web site.
