Review for The Trevor Project, Inc., West Hollywood, CA, USA
The Trevor Project provides an invaluable resource for troubled members of the LBGT community. Personally growing up in a very religious environment, I contemplated suicide several times. I made it through the ordeal via repression and extreme denial. Had I known about the existence of this group, it would undoubtedly have made me aware that I was not alone. Made me aware that there are people who would accept me for who I was. Instead, I spent the majority of my youth terrified to give any indication of a predilection for the same sex, and in fact went to the opposite extreme to avoid suspicion. If the Trevor Project could be integrated into America's schools, its vital educational programs would become the new frontier of suicide prevention, especially in the LBGT community.
