Did you know that there is a crisis helpline specifically for LGBTQ+ young people? The Trevor Project operates text, phone, and chat help that is staffed with professionals who are experts in working with young q***r people in crisis. Even if you are not in need now, saving the number in your phone means that you will have it ready when you, or a young person in your life, needs help!
