The Journal of GLBT Family Studies is a much-needed resource on the working dynamics of the diverse family structures found in every corner of the world. This groundbreaking new journal addresses the vital issues facing gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgender individuals and their families. Edited by Dr. Jerry J. Bigner, who has provided expert witness testimony in legal cases and in the litigation involving same-sex marriages in Canada, the journal features interdisciplinary studies and scholarly essays on topics related to GLBT family life and functioning as well as relationships with other families.

The Journal of GLBT Family Studies is the first journal to address family issues and concerns important to GLBT individuals and their families of origin, as well as families formed in adulthood. This unique peer-reviewed journal examines parent-child relationships, child development, sibling relationships, family structure, intimate relationships, stepfamilies, alternative family structures, and extended family relationships. The journal’s contributors present research findings on topics that range from family pattern issues relating to roles, rules, boundaries, and communication styles, to high risk issues, such as physical, sexual, and emotional abuse, HIV/AIDS, addiction, disclosure, homophobia, and heterosexism.
 
Peer Review Policy: All research, theoretical, and review articles in this journal have undergone rigorous peer review, based on initial editor screening and anonymous refereeing by 1 to 3 anonymous referees.
