These included:
- Trans Pathways: a study of gender diverse young people and their mental health and care pathways
- Private Lives 3: a study of health and wellbeing among LGBTQ+ adults (aged 18+)
- Writing Themselves In 4: a study of health and wellbeing among LGBTQA+ young people (aged 14-21)
Each of these studies heard from some LGBTQA+ people who were also Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander. In order to highlight their specific and unique experiences, this project sought to draw together the responses from these LGBTQA+ Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people. Findings from these responses are presented in a series of factsheets.
This factsheet explores experiences of mental ill-health, suicidality and support seeking amongst Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander LGBTQA+ participants in the Private Lives 3 survey.
