The Trevor Project (TheTrevorProject.org) is a non-profit organization offering 24/7 school, online and hotline counseling for struggling lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and questioning teens who are contemplating suicide. Inspired by the 1994 Academy Award winning movie, Trevor, theo hotline became the first 24/7 nationwide resource for LGBTQ kids and in 1998 before its HBO premier, the hotline was launched. Since then, online question and answering has gone underway, as well is in-person counseling among teens, their parents and their educators.
The Trevor Project strives to fulfill three organizational values- acceptance, commitment and innovation. The minds behind this project believe that all people, regardless of race, gender or sexual identity, should be treated as equals, and the organization will never turn someone away who actively seeks out help. When seeking out volunteers and employees for The Trevor Project, they work to reflect diversity. Secondly, The Trevor Project team commits to always being available for our teens in crisis. They promise to send out the message of suicide prevention in schools across the country, hire a quality staff and dedicate their work lives to promoting an equal and safe environment for America’s LGBTQ youth.
