A professional from a Nonprofit/Community-based Organization/Coalition said:

I was thrilled that the report included information addressing the needs of the LGBT community. I was also deeply disappointed that there was no mention of the data showing that suicidality is significantly worse for bisexuals, both adults and youth. This is particularly concerning since bisexuals constitute the largest population within the LGBT community. If we're going to stem the tide of suicide, we need to make sure our prevention efforts reach the people with the most acute needs. That said, this report is quite an achievement -- many thanks for your hard work!
