Provide Useful and Inclusive DataShare Cross Sector Data• Adopt a more cross-sector and
upstream approach to data. Develop partnerships with other agencies to share data on other social determinants that affect LGBTQ+ communities.
Disaggregate Data• Assess recommendations and
implement best practices around data collection for LGBTQ+ communities.

Data are collected, analyzed and shared in ways that value lived experiences
Data are disaggregated to include historically underrepresented communities
Data are easily accessible for communities to drive action and cross-sector policy change

Why Disaggregate LGBTQ+ Data?
14
![Page 16: Improving Data Collection for LGBTQ+ Communitiespublichealth.lacounty.gov/.../PDF/LGBTQDataEffortsPowerPointslides… · discrimination and violence SOGI data is needed to . optimally](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022063016/5fd48e2ad5a9c8594964f5c0/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
What is Data Aggregation and Disaggregation?
Data Aggregation
Information and raw data
gathered and expressed in a
summary form for the purposes
of statistical analysis.
15
Data Disaggregation
Breaking down of data collected
and compiled from multiple
individuals into its component
units
![Page 17: Improving Data Collection for LGBTQ+ Communitiespublichealth.lacounty.gov/.../PDF/LGBTQDataEffortsPowerPointslides… · discrimination and violence SOGI data is needed to . optimally](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022063016/5fd48e2ad5a9c8594964f5c0/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)

Why is Data Disaggregation Important?
Disaggregating data can reveal patterns that can be masked by larger, aggregate data.
Assessing disaggregated sub-populations can help ensure that resources are spent in communities where they are most needed and have the biggest impact.

DPH LGBTQ+ Data CollectionSome DPH Programs collect Sexual Orientation and Gender
Identity (SOGI) data
However, data collection is inconsistent and should be better standardized
We are working to improve our data collection and dissemination of SOGI data
19
![Page 21: Improving Data Collection for LGBTQ+ Communitiespublichealth.lacounty.gov/.../PDF/LGBTQDataEffortsPowerPointslides… · discrimination and violence SOGI data is needed to . optimally](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022063016/5fd48e2ad5a9c8594964f5c0/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Why prioritize SOGI data collection?Sexual and gender minority individuals have unique lived
experiences, health needs, and concerns that are hidden without better disaggregation
They experience disparities in mental health, disability and health care access
Face issues of intersectionality, discrimination and violence
SOGI data is needed to optimally plan programs, provide services and other interventions to best meet the needs of LGBTQ+ communities
20

There were roughly 92,000 (0.35%) TransgenderAdults (ages 18-70 years old) in California between 2015-2016.
Compared to Cisgender adults, Transgender adults were:
6x as likely to have ever attempted suicide
3x as likely to have negative emotions that interfere with relationships, social life, ability to do chores, and work performance
3x more likely to delay getting prescribed medicine or not get medications at all
