The study breaks most every question down along racial differences and FTM, MTF, and GNC dimensions. It shows much higher levels of violence, assault, discrimination against people of color in K-12 education. And it shows high high high correlations with leaving K-12 education with later homelessness, sex work, (very) low income, high HIV infection rates, incarceration, substance abuse, suicide attempts.

RE: employment, “For Black, Latino/a, American Indian and multiracial respondents, discrimination in the workplace was even more pervasive, sometimes resulting in up to twice or three times the rates of various negative outcomes.” And it did show greater discrimination against MTF, like in my super rough calculation looking at a few of their different measures, about 1.5 times more for MTF then FTM and GNC.

Unfortunately they don’t have numbers in there except for percentages of different groups vs. percentage of overall sample.

I didn’t see anything about murder in there. I don’t think that was something they looked at.

The study is something like 230 pages long. IMHO it looks like they really put a lot of effort in showing how when things like race and trans intersect the discrimination that results is “really bad” — but clearly “really bad” doesn’t do justice the situation. And I would definitely guess that those who experience the worst discrimination are least represented in the study.

I hope you are able to download it.
