Mental Health in America's LGBTQ+ Youth
LGBTQ+ youth in America experience worse mental health due to many factors. This needs to be addressed in communities, society, and the government so that former successful solutions can be utilized and new ones can be implemented. I am exploring those solutions (unsuccessful or successful), as well as organizations regarding the issue and people that have spoken out about it. I aim to bring light to this issue and open people's eyes to it.
