Data makes
a difference.
We believe that research has the opportunity to save lives and reveal problems that need solving.
Latest Research
We are committed to producing innovative research that brings knowledge and clinical implications to the field of suicide research. We accomplish this by leading the development, execution, and analysis of survey data collected from LGBTQ young people. We translate these findings to inform evidence-based policies and practices.

Research Collaboration
We, currently, don’t have additional capacity to partner on research studies or papers. We anticipate this changing at some point in the future as the Research team grows.
