2. What is the Trevor Project?
 The Trevor Project’s website states that it, “is the leading
national organization providing crisis intervention and suicide
prevention services to lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and
questioning youth.1”
 The Trevor Project holds fundraisers, events, and more in order
to raise money to help the LGBT youth.

3. History of the Trevor Project
 The Trevor Project was founded in 1998 by James Lecesne, Peggy Rajski and Randy Stone, the creators of the Academy
Award®-winning short film TREVOR. Set in 1981, TREVOR is a timeless coming-of-age story about love, loss, and learning to
be yourself.
 Trevor is an exuberant, happy 13-year old who has a crush on the most popular boy in school, Pinky Faraday. When
Trevor's classmates discover his true feelings for Pinky, they tease and mock him. Sad and friendless, Trevor decides the
world would be better off without him and tries to take his own life. But Trevor is no victim. By the end, it's clear his
developing sense of self and undeniable enthusiasm for life will always see him through.
 When TREVOR was scheduled to air on HBO®, the filmmakers realized that some young viewers might face the same kind
of crisis as Trevor and could use support. They searched for an appropriate lifeline number to broadcast with the film but
no such number existed. On August 8, 1998, James Lecesne, Peggy Rajski and Randy Stone opened the Trevor Lifeline.
Since that time, The Trevor Project has become a national leader providing crisis intervention and suicide prevention
services to LGBTQ youth.
 In addition to operating the only national crisis lifeline for LGBTQ teens and young adults, Trevor offers unique suicide
prevention services to youth in digital spaces, including counseling via instant message through TrevorChat and the largest
online social network specifically for young LGBTQ people, TrevorSpace.
 Recognized as a national leader, Trevor has played a key role as an appointee of the U.S. Department of Health and Human
Services to the National Action Alliance for Suicide Prevention, and has been a leading crisis resource for anti-bullying
initiatives, including StopBullying.gov. The Trevor Project is also a Champion of Change, an honor presented by the White
House for our innovative work to save the lives of LGBTQ young people.
