“…On a population basis, trans youth experience significantly poorer health outcomes than the general population, including increased risk of depression, anxiety, suicidality, and self-harm (Becerra-Culqui et al, 2018;Eisenberg et al, 2017;Rider, McMorris, Gower, Coleman, & Eisenberg, 2018;Veale, Watson, Peter, & Saewyc, 2017).
