Due to stigma and discrimination driven by systems of oppression—like cisheteronormativity, colonialism, racism and others—Two-Spirit, lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans, and queer (2S/LGBTQ+) people are more likely to experience isolation from social support networks and resources. Despite this, 2S/LGBTQ+ people continue to support one another, including in response to health challenges like the COVID-19 pandemic. This data highlight sheet showcases data from the Our Health 2022 survey related to social connection and isolation for 2S/LGBTQ+ people since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic.
