It brings together esteemed international researchers who explore the diverse needs of people with various sexual orientations and gender identities within the criminal justice context.

Suggestions for developing safer and more effective interventions for LGBTQ+ women and girls who are correctional clients, recognizing the unique vulnerabilities they face within the criminal justice system.

LGBTQ+ Issues in Criminology and Criminal Justice serves as a valuable resource for academics, researchers, advanced students, and professionals in the fields of criminology, criminal justice, law, victimology, policing, corrections, research methods, sociology, and media studies. The chapters in this book were originally published in the esteemed journal Criminal Justice Studies, further testament to their academic significance and relevance.

By examining these critical issues, the book contributes to a deeper understanding of the complexities faced by LGBTQ+ individuals within the criminal justice system and offers practical solutions to promote fairness, equality, and inclusivity for all.
