DisabiliT4T Needs Assessment

Welcome to the DisabiliT4T revolution.

We ALL have a right to a fulfilling social life!

Our mission is to create social spaces that center disabled and chronically ill queer (especially trans) people's right to have FUN. We also know that all of our survival needs must be met before anyone can thrive. Intentional community care, resource-sharing, and public health advocacy are inextricable from our mission.

The purpose of this research is to learn what our community's unmet needs actually are, so that we can try to meet them.

Who can take the survey?

Anyone, anywhere, who is queer/2SLGBTQIA+ and identifies as disabled or chronically ill (broadly defined).
If you're questioning if you're "disabled enough" to take this survey, the answer is unequivocally YES.

Once you begin the actual survey, you will need to complete it in one session.

Here's what you're in for:

The survey is 58 questions long and is broken up into 9 sections.

Please do not put more effort into this than you can spare. Most of the questions are not required and you may skip any that you don't want to answer. Every insight you choose to share is a gift!

Section 1: Identity - Tell us a bit about who you are so we know whose perspectives are being represented.

Section 2: COVID Precautions - Tell us what you need to feel safe around others, in person.

Section 3: Location - Tell us where you live.

Section 4: Access Needs and Limitations - Tell us about how you move through the world.

Section 5: Social Preferences - Tell us how you like to connect and have fun!

Section 6: Virtual Event Preferences - Tell us what makes virtual gatherings meaningful to you.

Section 7: Play Parties - Tell us what you want out of sex and kink events (as with all sections, feel free to skip!)

Section 8: Community Values - Tell us what you're looking for in community.

Section 9: Survival Needs - Tell us what support you need to keep yourself afloat.

Thank you for adding your valuable insights to our growing pool of knowledge!
