We would greatly appreciate you taking part in the survey and contributing to our understanding of factors that contribute to the well-being of Asian American LGB.

________________________________________________

I just took this survey with my mom. It was a good way to open up and discuss LGB issues that we normally wouldn’t talk about. If you have the time I suggest taking it—it was a very eye-opening experience that makes you think about how you view yourself and how you view the intersection between your culture, your sexuality, and your values.

(P.S. It only took like 20 minutes max so don’t be discouraged about the timing.)
