Description
LGBTQIA+ youth are at an increased risk for poor mental health, including suicide, not just because of their identity in and of itself, but also due to the stigma they face in society compounded with the already stressful things that all young people experience. However, significant differences exist among LGBTQIA+ youth who hold multiple marginalized identities. These unique stressors experienced at the intersection of their racial and LGBTQIA+ identities increase the risk for mental health challenges. Dr. Myeshia Price, former Director of Research at the Trevor Project, will cover the current state of LGBTQIA+ youth mental health, why we must consider intersectionality in how we approach interventions, and tips on how every person can contribute to the success and well-being of LGBTQIA+ youth.
