A new report revealed that transgender and nonbinary immigrants in Los Angeles experience higher rates of poverty, homelessness, and unemployment, as well as greater disparities in accessing education and healthcare than non-immigrant trans and nonbinary Angelenos. However, the report also showed that trans and nonbinary immigrants reported better mental health than non-immigrant trans and nonbinary Angelenos, were more likely to ask law enforcement officers for assistance, and more likely to run for or hold political office - all of which surprised researchers.
