My Nonprofit Reviews

In 2008, I became a volunteer helpline counselor having known about the Trevor Project for a few years. Over the past 10 months, I have only become more passionate about the cause. To hear directly from young people across the country and listen to their stories of confusion, rejection, depression, and the whole gamut of other emotions makes me realize how absolutely necessary it is to have people available 24/7 to talk, or simply just to listen. Many times I have heard from callers that it is the first time they have talked to a gay person, or the first time they have considered that they don't need to be ashamed for being who they truly are. Many of us know that one of the best ways to get through tough times is to have someone to talk to, and for the many youth out there who can't talk to someone where they are, The Trevor Project will be there. The combination of the Helpline, TrevorSpace, Dear Trevor, Survival Kits, and school workshops allows The Trevor Project to take an effective, multi-faceted approach to crisis and suicide prevention.
