Those are some sobering numbers :( Learning all of this has been shocking and upsetting. Do you happen to know why the incarceration rate has such a wide range of 19-65%? Shouldn't it be something like a single number like it is for the general US population?

It's a range because it's gleaned from different studies.

I'll find the PRISON HEALTH article with transgender lifetime incarceration rates and link it.

I made a new post in this thread with a link to the study about the frighteningly high lifetime incarceration rate for US TIMs.
