Celebrating Bi+ Visibility Day with Bold Bi+ Voices Across Media

Despite being the largest group within the LGBTQ+ community — with 24% of queer youth identifying as bisexual — bisexual, pansexual, and queer youth continue to face systemic biphobia, discrimination, and bi-erasure. Bisexual youth often report higher rates of anxiety, depression, and suicide risk compared to their monosexual peers, driven in large part by stereotyping and persistent misunderstandings of their identity, like the idea that bisexual attraction has to be “50/50” or excludes trans and nonbinary people. That’s why days like Bisexual Visibility Day matter! They give us a chance to challenge misconceptions, and remind young people that their identities…

What It Means To Be Latinx and Queer

Being Latinx is beautiful. Being queer is beautiful. However, while holding both identities can merge the best parts of two worlds, we also know it can come with significant challenges. Our research on LGBTQ+ young people of color showed that 64% of LGBTQ+ young people of color who experienced racial discrimination also experienced sexual orientation and/or gender identity-based discrimination in the past year. Two identities sometimes means two reasons for people to unjustly attack you. We know the Latinx community is facing persecution in America today, particularly in the form of racial profiling, ICE raids, and hateful political propaganda which…

In a time where women’s history and LGBTQ+ history are facing erasure, remembering the heroes of the past is more important than ever. Our world has been shaped in so many ways by people who dreamed big and forged hope despite the obstacles by unapologetically advocating for others. Unfortunately, women’s contributions to human advancement are too frequently glossed over, misattributed, or forgotten. This is also true for women’s involvement in the LGBTQ+ movement. Countless women have put their lives on the line to fight for equity and the rights we all deserve. Without their leadership and heart, LGBTQ+ rights would…

Creating LGBTQ+-Affirming Schools: Practical Ways Educators Can Support LGBTQ+ Youth

Download the Supporting LGBTQ+ Youth Mental Health in Schools guide here. For LGBTQ+ young people, feeling supported at school can make a meaningful difference in their mental health and well-being. According to The Trevor Project’s 2025 U.S. National Survey on the Mental Health of LGBTQ+ Young People, school is the second-most-affirming space identified by LGBTQ+ young people, with 57% describing it as a place where they experience affirmation. And that support matters: LGBTQ+ young people who reported having access to LGBTQ+ supportive spaces at school reported lower rates of suicide attempts than those without access to those spaces.

The Trump administration shut down the federal suicide prevention lifeline for LGBTQ+ youth one year ago today.

Here’s what’s happened since. One year ago, the federal government shuttered a suicide prevention lifeline that supported more than 1.5 million LGBTQ+ youth in crisis. On July 17, 2025, the Trump administration abruptly terminated the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline’s LGBTQ+ Youth Specialized Services program. Up until that point, LGBTQ+ young people under the age of 25 had the option of contacting the 988 Lifeline – our country’s federal suicide prevention hotline – and “pressing three,” “texting PRIDE,” or connecting via online chat to a counselor who was specially trained in supporting LGBTQ+ youth through crisis. Since 2022, the 988…
