Abstract

Lesbian, gay, and bisexual (LGB) young people were found to be at greater risk of suicidal behaviour. National prevention strategies have identified the need to reduce suicide risk in this population. However, research on specific risk factors for LGB young people that might inform suicide prevention programs are at an early stage of development.
