LGBTQ+ young people are really struggling more than non-LGBTQ+ when you look at every measure ... we're finding that they're having much tougher life experiences - discrimination, parents that don't support them.
The tracker seeks to provide information on both mental health and wellbeing. Good mental health is defined as having minimal clinical and subclinical conditions such as depression, anxiety, and loneliness.
The first round of data was gathered from a nationally representative sample of 4,509 U.S. residents aged 10 to 24, with an oversampling of young people who are LGBTQ+, BIPOC, or facing financial challenges.
Eventually, data will be collected from 10,000 young people. The survey used phone interviews, online panels, and social media outreach.
