Description

This presentation examines the role of substance use and religiosity/ spirituality as risk and protective factors for depression, suicidality among LGBTQ+ Seventh-day Adventist Millennials. Results suggest that religious participation may suffer some mental health challenges and self-harm, while significant concern remains for those who identified as transgender or gender diverse.
