Since the 2010s, LGBTIQ children have become increasingly visible in Spain, a visibility reflected in their inclusion in public policies at both national and regional levels. Regions such as Catalonia and Madrid have passed legislation that creates specific services and protocols to protect these children. However, the actual impact of these laws and services has not yet been assessed. This article analyses the results of 35 interviews with stakeholders in addition to four focus groups containing 24 adolescents, focusing on the knowledge, practices, experiences and needs of the two groups. Despite the differences between the regions, the results are similar: although professionals can be supportive, they need both more knowledge and clearer directions regarding how to focus their interventions with LGBTIQ children, while adolescents need adults to listen to them and confront and combat their adultist biases
