“…Youth, LGBTQI+ youth and families that include LGBTQI+ youth, may have specific needs in terms of the physical environment in crisis accommodation. Although the needs of LGBTQI+ and non-LGBTQI+ youth overlap in many respects, LGBTQI+ youth are likely to have additional privacy needs such as: private intake spaces; gender inclusive or single-stall showers and toilets with lockable doors; private bedrooms or, if shared, semi-private sleeping accommodation based on gender identity (Andrews and McNair 2020;Bowers, Aguiniga et al 2022;Mottet and Ohle 2006). Also important for youth generally are features such as secure, lockable storage for belongings; access to computers, Wi-Fi or the Internet and charging facilities; and quiet areas for study (Kitchell and Hearn 2019;MacLaren, Pencheva et al 2020;Pencheva, MacLaren et al 2020a;Pencheva, MacLaren et al 2020b).…”

“…Others have investigated LGBTIQ+ people's experiences of accessing housing-related support services (Abramovich & Kimura, 2019;Coolhart & Brown, 2017;Côté & Blais, 2019;Ecker et al, 2022;Hail-Jares, 2023;Prock & Kennedy, 2020;Shelton, 2015). Related literature on service provision focuses on how services frequently fail to meet the specific needs of LGBTIQ+ communities (Abramovich, 2016b(Abramovich, , 2016aBowers et al, 2022;Coolhart & Brown, 2017;England, 2022b;Ferguson & Maccio, 2015;Gattis et al, 2023;Gutman et al, 2022;Hooks Wayman, 2009;Hunter, 2008;Maccio & Ferguson, 2016;Mottet & Ohle, 2006;Prock & Kennedy, 2017;Shelton, Poirier, et al, 2018;Walls et al, 2007;Yu, 2010). Despite its strengths, much of this literature, again, is focused on quantitative data and focuses on the North American context.…”

Although Takatāpui/ lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, intersex, questioning, plus (LGBTIQ+) people are over-represented in homelessness statistics, there is limited qualitative research that explores the enduring effects of homelessness once they have attained housing stability. Using data from eight semi-structured interviews, we explore life after homelessness for Takatāpui/LGBTIQ+ people in Aotearoa, New Zealand. Results show the long-term ramifications of homelessness, stigma, and shame about having experienced homelessness, participants’ desire to “turn their lives around,” and their experiences of supporting others. These findings show that experiencing homelessness influences people’s lives long after they are housed.
