  • The Trevor Project, a leading LGBTQ youth suicide prevention organization, said calls and text messages to its crisis intervention hotline had risen by a third on President Trump's Inauguration Day, an increase the group described as "significant" and concerning.

The article from MSN, published on January 20, 2024, discusses a significant increase in calls to The Trevor Project's crisis hotline for LGBTQ youth on Inauguration Day. According to the report, there was a 33% surge in calls, which The Trevor Project attributes to heightened anxiety and fear among young people due to the political climate and the inauguration of President Joe Biden. The Trevor Project, an organization focused on suicide prevention efforts among lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, and questioning (LGBTQ) youth, noted that many callers expressed concerns about potential policy changes, the future of their rights, and the general atmosphere of uncertainty. The article highlights the ongoing challenges faced by the community, even with a more supportive administration, and underscores the need for continued mental health support and advocacy for these youth.
