As a mother and a long-time Lego user myself, who built my first Technic model over 25 years ago, I find the need for "Ladyfigs" ridiculous and offensive.
Dear Kevin:
Many thanks for your explanation. The underreporting you discuss makes sense. I would still have hoped that somewhere in your report, which claims to be "A National Picture of Youth Homelessness," you made mention of the fact that you do serve (among others) an LGBT population. I have to imagine that some youth openly identified as LGBT at intake. You could omit exact numbers if there are issues with the accuracy of the count -- but some acknowledgement in your "National Picture" (perhaps in the section titled "Limitations") that you know of and are working with this population would have been appreciated.
I am heartened to hear that you are looking to capture this information in a future study.
Unfortunately, I live several hours from the nearest Covenant House facility and am unable to volunteer in person--but I hope that some other readers of this post may do so.
