More Asian young people are dying by suicide — and some subgroups are faring worse than others

from NBC Asian American By Sakshi Venkatraman

Suicide rates among young Asian Americans have sharply increased over the last few years — and a few subgroups seem to be particularly vulnerable. 

A new study points out that although suicide rates for Asian men have increased 72% and for women 125% over the past 25 years, certain Asian American minorities and Pacific Islander groups fare even worse. Vietnamese American youth, for example, face a particularly high risk.
