Suicide Prevention for LGBTIQA+ Communities
Whilst suicide is a highly complex issue that affects many individuals and their families, research consistently shows that LGBTIQA+ communities are overrepresented in prevalence statistics for suicidal ideation and harm. In this webinar, panellists will explore how to identify risk factors for suicidal thoughts and harm, as well as protective factors within families, schools and communities that assist in prevention of suicide for LGBTIQA+ people. The importance of collaborative interdisciplinary service provision and appropriate referral pathways when providing care to people from LGBTIQA+ communities will also be covered.
