Two decades ago, we responded to a health crisis.
Now we’re building a safer, more-inclusive world. LGBTQ young people are four times more likely to attempt suicide, and suicide remains the second leading cause of death among all young people in the U.S.
Our Mission
To end suicide among lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer & questioning young people.
Our Vision
A world where all LGBTQ young people see a bright future for themselves.
Our Goal
To serve 1.8 million crisis contacts annually, by the end of our 25th year, while continuing to innovate on our core services.
Our Five Key Programs
We aim to achieve this through our core group of programs.
Crisis Services
Direct suicide prevention and crisis intervention services to support via phone, text, and chat.
Peer Support
The world’s largest, safe-space social networking community.
Research
Evaluations that significantly improve our services and field.
Public Education
Educating around issues relevant to LGBTQ youth and allies.
Advocacy
Fighting for policies and laws that protect LGBTQ youth.
Guiding Principles
These principles help us make important decisions about everything from programs to campaigns, to events, to staffing.
This crisis touches every town, city, and state.
The Trevor Project estimates that there are over 1.8 million LGBTQ youth in the United States seriously considering suicide each year.
