But the grim statistics were offset by the additional finding that youth living in &#8220;supportive&#8221; communities are less likely to attempt suicide. The Youth and Gender Media Project explores through film, the stories of gender non-conforming children and their parents. Through two short films called &#8220;I&#8217;m Just Anneke,&#8221; and &#8220;The Family Journey,&#8221; Director and Editor Jonathan Skurnik sees his films as an educational tool to &#8220;educate and transform school communities across the United States.&#8221; <\/p>\n<p><em>GUEST: Jonathan Skurnik, Director and Editor of the films, I\u2019m Just Anneke, and The Family Journey<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Buy the DVD here: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.newday.com\/films\/youthandgendermediaproject.html\">http:\/\/www.newday.com\/films\/youthandgendermediaproject.html<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Find out more at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.genderspectrum.org\">www.genderspectrum.org<\/a>, and <a href=\"http:\/\/youthandgendermediaproject.com\">youthandgendermediaproject.com<\/a>. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A study published in April by Columbia University in the journal Pediatrics found that more than 20 percent of LGBTQ youth are likely to have attempted suicide in the past year.
