Research shows that LGBTQ+ populations of all ages disproportionately experience more instances of mental health and substance use disorders, suicidality, and poorer wellbeing outcomes compared to their heterosexual and cisgender peers (SAMHSA, 2022). 39% of those who identify as LGBTQ+ report having experienced mental illness within the past year, with LGBTQ+ youth four times as likely to attempt suicide when compared to their heterosexual counterparts. In this workshop, participants will increase their knowledge and understanding of LGBTQ+ disparities, unmet treatment needs, and best practices.
