The Trevor Project is the world?s largest suicide prevention and mental health organization for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, and questioning (LGBTQ) young people.
The Trevor Project is on a mission to end suicide among lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer & questioning young people. The Trevor Project supports five key programs to help create a world where all LGBTQ+ young people can see a bright future for themselves: Crisis Services, Peer Support, Research, Public Education, and Advocacy.
One of the most important services provided by The Trevor Project is its Crisis Services. The Trevor Project has crisis counselors available 24/7 who are trained to answer calls, chats, or texts from LGBTQ+ young people who reach out on their free, confidential, and secure service when they are struggling with issues such as coming out, LGBTQ identity, depression, and suicide.
Top-Line Statistics:
- LGBTQ youth are more than four times as likely to attempt suicide than their peers (Johns et al., 2019; Johns et al., 2020).
- The Trevor Project estimates that more than 1.8 million LGBTQ youth (13-24) seriously consider suicide each year in the U.S. ? and at least one attempts suicide every 45 seconds.
- The Trevor Project?s 2022 National Survey on LGBTQ Youth Mental Health found that 45% of LGBTQ youth seriously considered attempting suicide in the past year, including more than half of transgender and nonbinary youth.
Social Support and Acceptance Statistics:
- Having at least one accepting adult can reduce the risk of a suicide attempt among LGBTQ young people by 40 percent.
- LGBTQ youth who live in a community that is accepting of LGBTQ people reported much lower rates of attempting suicide than those who do not.
