Sometimes the Silence Can Seem So Loud: Teen Suicide Study Guide

Suicide is the third leading cause of death for 15-19 year-olds in the United States, and yet it remains a taboo subject that few care to discuss at school or at home. A lesser-known fact is that gay teens are up to 6 times more likely to attempt suicide than their straight peers. Through interviews with gay and straight teens, family members and school counselors, EVC youth producers tackle the challenging issue of teen suicide in a frank, compassionate way that teens can relate to.
