I'm on a Yahoo Group called, Queer Disability, and recently a question was posted about statistics on people with disabilities that are Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, or Transgndered (LGBT). I'm certain that many of you may be members of this Yahoo Group too. Apparently, this information isn't easy to find. Are any of you aware of any place to find statistics on people with disabilities that are LGBT?

I'm sorry I don't know where to find any statistics but I would be interested to know. I think it will be hard to track them down as we aren't really accepted in the queer or disabled communities. Also it can be harder to come out if you are disabled and dependant on other people to help you, so they may not be all that accurate.
I'll have a look and if you find any could you post them here?

Thanks! I think that you are right about accurate statistics being difficult to find. I'll be glad to share any information that I find with you.
