Review for The Trevor Project, Inc., West Hollywood, CA, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

The Trevor Project has been an ongoing program that has proved vital to numerous LGBT youth. Through the implementaiton of their new program, Trevor Space, they have allowed youth from across the country (LGBT and Allied youth)to connect in a safe environment, share their stories and continue to provide one-on-one personal mentoring. Not only does Trevor Space and the Trevor Project provide suicide prevention for LGBT youth, it provides them with a situation in which they can feel comfortable about who they are, explore their identity, and find similar youth with whom they can share their experiences and simply become friends.

I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...

the way that they support each and every youth allow youth to engage with similar youth in a safe environment provide youth with the personal connection that each and everyone needs

If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...

expand the program to new locations and new horizons

What I've enjoyed the most about my experience with this nonprofit is...

that they really do save lives help the entire community allow individuals to give back in small ways

The kinds of staff and volunteers that I met were...

very outgoing supportive approachable willing to listen and take criticism

If this organization had 10 million bucks, it could...

develop a more friendly user face for Trevor Space launch a media campaign on a wide scale reach countless other youth partner with numerous other organizations

Ways to make it better...

the website had a better userface

In my opinion, the biggest challenges facing this organization are...

financial and personel restraints. They simply do not have enough money or staff to expand the program at this time.

One thing I'd also say is that...

this organization does amazing work and save lives every day, both directly and indirectly. Just knowing that this organization exists supports youth in the way they need.

When was your last experience with this nonprofit?

2009

Role:  Professional with expertise in this field & Promoted the program throughout the state (Texas) in order to prevent LGBT youth suicide.
