According to a new Trevor Project survey, that figure climbs to more than 50% for transgender and non-binary youth.
NEW YORK, July 15 - Forty percent of young LGBTQ people in the United States say they have seriously considered suicide over the past 12 months, according to a survey released on Wednesday, while the figure climbs to more than 50% for transgender and non-binary youth surveyed.
The survey was conducted between Dec. 2, 2019 and March 31, 2020 - mostly before the coronavirus outbreak began to sweep through the United States. It builds on the project’s first national survey released last year that found 39% of LGBTQ youth had seriously considered attempting suicide in the past 12months.
The survey, the largest of its kind, also showed that manyLGBTQ youth lack the opportunity and means to access the mental healthcare they say they need. Telemedicine has proved very effective in providing services to many LGBTQ people during the pandemic, said Maureen Kelly ofPlanned Parenthood of Greater New York. But it also highlighted historic barriers facing LGBTQ people and youth like finding a provider that is competent to treat LGBTQ patients or reliable internet services.
