Abstract:

Changes in the country's attitudes toward LGBT persons and civil rights struggles by LGBT persons themselves demand a conscious effort to include issues of gender and sexual orientation in child welfare practice and policy debates. To engage in serious discussion about issues of gender and sexual orientation in child welfare in the United States must begin not with the problems of LGBT persons but with the imperfection of the American society, rooted in historic inequalities and long-standing cultural stereotypes.
