We know that family conflict is the number one cause of youth homelessness across the board, regardless of a young person's identity, but for LGBTQ2S youth, it has to do with identity-based family conflict. For a lot of these young people, perhaps they were living in a home where there was family conflict for years, and then as soon as they came out as trans or lesbian or gay or bi, it came to a situation where either they were kicked out or were forced to leave home because of the conflict. It's really about identity-based conflict when a young person comes out. That is the leading cause.
