Abstract

For this study, in-depth, semi-structured interviews were conducted with 16 transgender adults who lived, or had previously lived, in Mississippi and sought healthcare services in the state. The questions asked focused on identifying the barriers to care that these individuals faced as well as the strategies for navigating the barriers they employed. Recommendations for providers were also considered.
