Abstract
Literature pertaining to Latinx lesbians, and their experience of loneliness is scant. In a predominantly Latinx bordertown, resources for these individuals are nearly non-existent. For this reason, it is crucial to identify the experiences of Latinx lesbians with regard to loneliness and social support to better serve this population.
