Researchers argue that a disproportionate number of lesbian and gay adolescents attempt suicide. The problem demands careful attention from social work. Most, perhaps all, social workers serve lesbian and gay clients. Some are aware of it. Yet all too often social workers assume that the sexual orientation of the adolescents with whom they work does not vary. When that assumption is made, social workers may be missing a key opportunity to understand and intervene with and on behalf of gay and lesbian teens. This paper begins by defining several pertinent terms. Next, it examines findings concerning prevalence and risk factors for suicidality in lesbian and gay youth, and provides information on recognizing lesbian and gay adolescents. The paper ends with an overview of areas in which social workers need to intervene. |
