More than one in 10 young people who identify as LGBTQ attempted suicide in 2023, a survey from suicide prevention organization Trevor Project has found. The survey, which focuses on the mental health of LGBTQ youth, was circulated to 18,000 people from ages 13 to 24. Nearly 40 percent of LGBTQ young people seriously considered attempting suicide in the past year, while 46 percent of transgender and nonbinary young people between the ages of 13 and 17 had similar ideations. Transgender men were the most at risk, with more than 50 percent of them reporting considering suicide and 18 percent...

In April 2023, Santa Ana Unified School District removed the Trevor Project Crisis Hotlines from posters at all K-12 schools, as well as from counselors’ business cards. I watched it happen. They did so because in February 2023, I and others showed the Superintendent and board members screenshots from TrevorSpace, an online chat site recommended to students through the Trevor Project. The screenshots revealed TrevorSpace could easily be abused by online predators taking advantage of naïve kids, especially kids in crisis. TrevorSpace advertises itself as a place to meet LGBT friends. It says that it is an affirming international community...

Customers checking out at Macy's this month have been surprised by a request during checkout to "round up" and make a donation to the controversial group, The Trevor Project, which has been accused of grooming children through its at-risk hotlines for LGBTQ youth. Macy's support of The Trevor Project is nothing new -- the relationship between the two organizations dates back more than ten years by now. It turns out that Macy's is, in fact, the largest funder of The Trevor Project, and a proud national Pride partner. This goes hand-in-hand with Macy's DEI commitment, of course, which has "become...

The Trevor Project, whose mission is to “end suicide among LGBTQ young people,” has partnered with common household brands to develop their respective pride-themed collections and has, in some cases, received seven-figure donations from corporate sponsors. The major corporate partnerships, which include iconic clothing brands such as Abercrombie & Fitch to fast food chains like Chipotle, come despite the organization’s unsafe online practices. The youth-oriented LGBT activist group hosts an anonymous online chat forum “Trevor Space,” which allows adults to communicate with minors, National Review previously reported. The organization hosts multiple age-segregated chatrooms but has no age-verification system in place,...

WND News Center) — The family of Sam Brinton – former high-level Biden nuclear-waste appointee, alleged luggage-stealer and self-described “genderfluid bisexual” – is finally speaking out publicly to debunk what they say are lies he told about them. “Former Biden Department of Energy official Sam Brinton claims to have been beaten by their [his] father, who held a gun to their [his] head and forced them [him] into [ex-gay] conversion therapy – but their [his] family insist it is all lies,” reported the New York Post Febraury 19, using Brinton’s “preferred pronouns” of “they/them.” The cross-dressing Brinton was fired in...

Legislators in California are considering a bill that would allow state officials to separate children from their families without letting the parents know until after the fact. Government authorities could do this for children who struggle with gender identity problems but whose parents are not being “ affirming ” of their new identification as the opposite sex, or as nonbinary, gender fluid, pansexual, or one of the other made-up genders or sexual orientations. THERE'S NOTHING 'AFFIRMING' ABOUT MUTILATING CHILDREN The bill, AB 665 , “would allow children as young as 12 years old to consent to being placed into state-funded...

The Biden administration promoted the use of puberty blockers for transgender children by citing a study from an LGBT group funded in part by a manufacturer of the controversial drugs used in gender reassignment. In statements commemorating "Transgender Day of Visibility," the White House and Department of Health and Human Services cited research from the Trevor Project to support the use of puberty blockers, hormone therapy, and sex-reassignment procedures in children seeking to change genders. Two of the Trevor Project’s donors, AbbVie and Allergan, make drugs and medical products used in the medical gender transition process. The charitable foundations of...

I realize that certain press outlets will probably want to paint this as in-fighting between J.K. Rowling and myself, but that is really not what this is about, nor is it what’s important right now. While Jo is unquestionably responsible for the course my life has taken, as someone who has been honored to work with and continues to contribute to The Trevor Project for the last decade, and just as a human being, I feel compelled to say something at this moment. Transgender women are women. Any statement to the contrary erases the identity and dignity of transgender people...
