Description
This creative group project aims to bring visibility to the diversity of the LGBTQ+ community at Arizona State University by sharing the personal stories and opinions of people from across ASU's rainbow spectrum. Created and produced by a gay couple that met in their first year dorm and a passionate ally, gAySU: Exploring Sparky's Rainbow is a compilation of photos, videos, and stories from ASU students, faculty, and staff that identify with the LGBTQ+ community. When reflecting on their own journey over the past three years, gAySU's creators recognized ASU can feel large with many pockets of communities, yet through trial and error over the past 4 years they managed to explore their identities and grow as individuals, as a couple, and as an ally. By sharing their story and the stories of others, it is the hope that gAySU allows its readers and viewers an insight into what it means to be both a Sun Devil and LGBTQ+, and for those new to or anxious to identify with the LGBTQ+ community, to understand they are not alone in their journey and that it is okay to bleed maroon, gold, and all other colors of the rainbow.

Description
Although estimated to be 50-60% more than in heteronormative populations, intimate partner violence (IPV) in LGBTQ+ populations is often unrecognized. This project aims to increase nurse practitioner (NP) IPV screening to facilitate early intervention and decrease LGBTQ+ IPV rates.
The researcher gathered information from 1:1 interview with LGBTQ+ IPV survivors (n=3) and produced a dramatization narrating experiences. Subjects were required to preregister and consent. Nurse practitioners (n=6) participated in a 1.5hr online educational intervention, viewing the video and a 45-min webinar.
The Physician Readiness to Manage Intimate Partner Violence Scale (PREMIS) and the LGBT Development of Clinical Skills Scale (LGBT-DOCCS) were administered as test-retest. The PREMIS measures (? =.963) readiness to screen for IPV, the LGBT-DOCCS measures attitude (?=.80), clinical preparedness (?=.88) and knowledge (?=.83). All participants in both groups were voluntary and recruited from e-lists and special interest groups. Cox’s Theory of Interaction and the Minority Stress Theory were the dual framework along with the ACE model of transformational knowledge to support methodology and outcomes.
Results
Statistically significant (p<0.05) improvements in readiness to screen for IPV, knowledge, and attitudes as measured by PREMIS domains (p= .006; p=.012) and LGBT-DOCSS (p = .028). Clinically significant improvement in mean scores for likelihood to screen for SOGI.
Supported by the theoretical framework and implementation model, increased readiness to screen, improved knowledge and improved attitude, will lead to better NP-patient interactions, decreased minority stress, increased NP screening and intervention, and decreased rates of IPV in LGBTQ+ populations.
