Should programs and services for sexual minority families be mainstreamed in organizations which traditionally cater to a predominantly non-gay, non-lesbian clientele, or should these services and programs remain the purview of specialized organizations catering to the needs of gay and lesbian clientele? This essay begins with a discussion of the unique needs of sexual minority families and the current rationale for separate versus integrated services, including an examination of the pressures on these families and what they need to sustain family life. Arguments for and against separate and integrated services are explored. Second, the ways an organization's culture shapes receptivity and responsiveness to a particular client population are considered. Attitudes, values, beliefs, and symbols dictate an agency's norms and prescribe its organizational behavior. Ultimately this is reflected in the programs and services to parents and children. Finally, this essay sets out an argument for developing a continuum of service delivery strategies for promoting family life among sexual minorities. |
