| contents | <p><span lang="EN-US">Behind prison walls, where silence often hides stories of pain and resilience, the voices of LGBTQI Persons Deprived of Liberty (PDLs) struggle to be heard. Their existence within correctional facilities is marked not only by confinement but also by the weight of stigma, misunderstanding, and policies that are inconsistently implemented. While society outside continues to fight for equality and recognition, many LGBTQI PDLs remain invisible, navigating challenges in admission, housing, safety and security, and access to welfare programs. This study, <em>Breaking Barriers: Enhancing Treatment and Services among LGBTQI Persons Deprived of Liberty</em>, was born out of the urgent need to shed light on their lived realities and to examine whether the policies of the Bureau of Jail Management and Penology (BJMP) designed to protect them truly translate into practice. Utilizing a mixed-methods research design with an explanatory-sequential approach, the study first gathered quantitative data through survey questionnaires administered to both jail officers and LGBTQI PDLs, followed by qualitative interviews to explore the nuances behind their perceptions. Statistical tools were employed to determine the level of implementation of BJMP-DIWD-SOP-023 and the significance of perceptual differences, while thematic analysis was used to interpret qualitative responses. Results revealed that BJMP policies were generally perceived as highly implemented across admission, segregation, welfare, and security domains, with no significant differences between groups, except in general treatment, where PDLs rated inclusivity lower. The findings underscore the need for enhanced gender-sensitivity training, participatory policy review, and strengthened human rights compliance within correctional facilities.</span></p> |
