Cultural Considerations in BIPOC and LGBTQIA Youth Suicide Prevention

Title of Event: Cultural Considerations in BIPOC and LGBTQIA Youth Suicide Prevention

Description of Event:

Over the past several years the rates of suicide for Hispanic, Black, Asian and Pacific Islander youth have seen significant increases, while the rate of suicide amongst White youth has decreased. Additionally, the risk of suicide among 2SLGBTQIA+ youth is three times that of their heterosexual and cisgender peers. (Chu, J., O’Neill, S.E., Ng, J.F., Khoury, O. (2022).
