According to an annual report by the Trevor Project, suicide is the second leading cause of death in 13- to 24-year-olds. And this year, 62% of LGBTQ youths reported symptoms of depression, with 2 out of 3 identifying as transgender or nonbinary. And for LGBTQ youth of color, the numbers are even more alarming.
