Abstract
AbstractThis article explores the close relationships between LGBTQ+ Evaluation (LGBTQ+E) and Culturally Responsive Evaluation (CRE). First, we consider the role of CRE spaces, scholars, and practitioners in supporting LGBTQ+E, including Dr. Stafford Hood, who helped us break through barriers that kept LGBTQ+E practices marginalized in the evaluation canon. We reflect on parallel developmental trajectories, and explore how LGBTQ+E embodies CRE. Finally, we discuss how LGBTQ+E and CRE can evolve through deepening their relationships and attending more meaningfully to intersectional and international work.
