This project investigates the intersectional factors contributing to heightened suicide risk among Black sexual and gender minority (SGM) youth, aiming to identify modifiable protective factors and structural influences. Through a multi-level, mixed-methods approach over 18 months, including surveys, daily diaries, and interviews, the research seeks to inform the development of culturally relevant interventions to address mental health disparities in this population.
