A ground-breaking report shows higher levels of self-harm and attempted suicide among young LGBTI people in Ireland.

The LGBTI Ireland Report details the findings of Ireland’s largest ever study of the mental health and well-being of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and intersex (LGBTI) people in Ireland.

"That it involves so many young people is tragic. That it is soluble is the good news."
