The Trevor Helpline Volunteer Application

Welcome to The Trevor Project and thank you for your interest in volunteering on The Trevor Helpline, the only national toll-free, 24-hour helpline for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and questioning (LGBTQ) teens. We appreciate your willingness to volunteer your time and talents to our shared goal of keeping LGBTQ teens alive and helping them to find self-acceptance and self-respect.

This application contains questions that might be considered of a personal and sensitive nature. All of your responses will be kept in the strictest confidence and only viewed by Trevor Helpline administration.
