The current study sought to assess if differences in mental and physical health exist between U.S-born and immigrant Latinx sexual and gender minority adults. To do so, we analyzed publicly available national data from the Social Justice Sexuality Project (N = 950), the findings from which indicate that immigrant Latinx LGBT adults have better physical health, but not mental health, than their U.S.-born counterparts. We also assessed the moderating effects of family support and racial community climate on the nativity-health relationships; neither were significant. Our work substantiates the need to consider the identified heterogeneity among this population and the implications therein, and the importance of not conflating all racial-ethnic LGBT persons as a single group
