This month, The Trevor Project published its first-ever state-by-state analysis of LGBTQ youth mental health in all 50 states. This report, based on our latest national survey of nearly 34,000 LGBTQ young people across the U.S. provides critical insights into the suicide risk, barriers to mental health care, anti-LGBTQ victimization, and negative impacts of recent politics reported by LGBTQ youth.

See how the 4 most populous states compare:

% of LGBTQ youth who seriously considered suicide in the past year: Florida - 45%, New York - 41%, Texas - 47%, California - 44%
% of LGBTQ youth who wanted mental health care in the past year were not able to get it: Florida - 65%, New York - 58%, Texas - 68%, California - 62%
% of LGBTQ youth who identified school as an LTBTQ-affirming space: Florida - 43%, New York - 45%, Texas - 43%, California - 50%
% of LGBTQ youth who experienced discrimination based on sexual orientation or gender identity: Florida - 74%, New York - 69%, Texas - 74%, California - 70%

These learnings enable us to better understand how to support and affirm the experiences of the LGBTQ young people closest to them, and reveal disparities across communities. We hope you can take the time today to learn more about the challenges faced by LGBTQ young people in your state and how to create accepting and affirming spaces in your community.
