Study finds more needs to be done for young LGBTI people

More than 6000 young people, aged between 14 and 21, answered questions on education, homelessness, harassment, mental health and community connections over 2019. La Trobe Associate Professor Adam Bourne said the report found that LGBTI young people did suffer ongoing and significant stigma, discrimination, violence and abuse including “in public, in their homes, on the sports field and at school”. “We have to recognise that context as we reflect upon the very high rates of poor mental health that we documented,” Bourne said. Marina Carman, co-author, La Trobe Research Fellow and Director of Rainbow Health Victoria said meaningful and sustained action is still required to try and stop “harm before it occurs”.
