The Trevor Project

Founded in 1998 by James Lecesne, Peggy Rajski, and Randy Stone, creators of the Academy Award-winning short film TREVOR, The Trevor Project established the first national crisis intervention and suicide prevention lifeline for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and questioning (LGBTQ) youth. Since then, The Trevor Project has been a well-known innovator in LGBTQ suicide prevention and advocacy, with a large social network and a wealth of resources for youth and adults. The Trevor Project’s confidential phone, instant message, and text messaging crisis intervention services are available 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Visitors to the website will also find a blog, events calendar, and many more resources for LGBTQ youth.

National Suicide Prevention Lifelife

The Lifeline (1-800-273-TALK) is a confidential, toll-free, 24-hour crisis line available to anyone in suicidal crisis or emotional distress. It was launched in 2005 by the U.S. Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration and the Mental Health Association of New York City. The Lifeline’s network of crisis centers across the nation connects callers to crisis counselors and mental health referrals day and night. Veterans, active military, and their families are connected to a veterans suicide prevention hotline specialist. The National Suicide Prevention Lifeline website also provides information for the deaf and hard of hearing, information about how to help someone else, and general information about mental health, therapy, and suicide prevention.
