Researcher: Gay-Straight Alliances Key To Reducing Teen Suicide Attempts Gay and straight teens who live in socio-politically conservative areas are more likely to attempt suicide, and the degree of an area’s political conservatism reflects the degree teens — gay or straight — are likely to attempt suicide. —

This is research that I’ve used in previous work but have happily stumbled upon again. I think this is helpful for communities when talking about acceptance. PEOPLE DO BETTER WHERE THERE IS LOVE AND ACCEPTANCE FOR ALL, NOT SOME OR CERTAIN GROUPS, BUT ALL GROUPS.
