Crisis calls from LGBTQ+ youth rise 700 percent after election results

mlive.com — November 12, 2024 at 10:00 PM UTC

After Election Day, calls and texts to the Trevor Project, a suicide prevention organization for LGBTQ+ youth, surged by 700 percent. Many young people expressed feelings of fear and anxiety regarding the election results, particularly following Donald Trump's victory. The Trevor Project's services, which support mental health for LGBTQ+ youth aged 13 to 24, are experiencing long wait times. The increase in crisis outreach is linked to a political climate that has intensified anti-LGBTQ+ sentiments and policies. Research indicates that state laws targeting LGBTQ+ rights negatively impact mental health, leading to higher suicide attempts among transgender and nonbinary youth. The Trevor Project emphasizes the importance of community support and offers various resources for those in crisis.
