At the community forum, sixty influential advocates, including Latina transgender women, community-based organization staff members, health and social service providers, and law enforcement, reviewed findings and developed ten recommended actions. These included educating staff members at the Mexican Consulate in Raleigh about the lives of Latina transgender women in order to reduce discrimination they felt when seeking consulate services; increasing health promotion programming in specific priority areas, that is, linking HIV, sexual health, and transition-related services; and raising consciousness about negative experiences with police about intimate partner violence. Overall, photovoice served to obtain rich qualitative insight of Latina transgender women that was then shared with local leaders and agencies to help address priorities (Rhodes, Alonzo, Mann, Sun, et al., 2015).

Gaps can also be filled by collecting data using innovative quantitative methods, such as respondent-driven sampling, which uses chain referrals or initial respondents as “seed” to yield representative samples and prevalence estimates for populations that may be considered “difficult to reach” by researchers or other outsiders or for which no sampling frame exists (Rhodes, McCoy, et al., 2012; Song et al., 2012).
