The Trevor Project

Today, we honor the resilience, beauty, and truth of Indigenous LGBTQ+ and Two-Spirit young people. Many face disproportionate structural inequalities, anti-LGBTQ+ violence, and disproportionately high rates of mental health struggles. But we also know: support saves lives. Among Native LGBTQ+ youth, those who felt genuine family support had far lower rates of suicide attempts (13%) compared to 24% for those who did not. This Native American Heritage Day, we don’t just remember culture — we demand justice. We advocate for Indigenous LGBTQ+ youth. We fight for their safety, their mental health, their dignity. A reminder for today and every day: Extend love. Give support. Protect each other. 🌿🧡🌈 #NativeAmericanHeritageDay

On November 20 — Transgender Day of Remembrance, we pause. We mourn. We uplift. We remember. This year, Advocates for Trans Equality released a report documenting that 58 trans and gender non-conforming lives were lost . 27 of those deaths were violent. 21 were by suicide. We carry their names. We carry their stories. Their lives mattered. Their existence made this world a better place. Ajani Walden Amyri Dior, 23 Apollo Moon, 26 Arty Cassidy Beowulf Gibson, 23 Aubrey Dameron, 25 Aziza “Z” Barnes, 31 Bianca “Jiggly Caliente” Castro-Arabejo, 44 Blair Sawyer, 27 Cam Thompson, 18 Charlotte Fosgate, 17 Christina Hayes, 28 Deniz Chucker Dream Johnson, 28 Eli Stablein, 49 Elisa Rae Shupe, 61 Emma Slabach, 24 Ervianna Johnson, 25 Gabrielle “Cam” Nguyen, 21 Hope Lyca Youngblood, 49 Jax Gratton, 34 Jay Floris, 23 Jill Heathers Bouvier, 54 JJ Godbey, 26 Kaitoria Bankz, 31 Kamora Woods, 27 Karmin Wells, 25 Kasi Rhea, 31 Katelyn Rinnetta Benoit, 15 Kelsey Elem, 25 Kyla Jane Walker, 39 Lady Java, 82 Laura Schueler, 47 Leah Jo, 37 Lia Smith, 21 Lily-Dawn Harkins, 22 Linda Becerra Moran, 30 Luisa Rivera, 68 Megan Jordan Kridli, 22 Meka Shabazz, 46 Michele Kaemmerer, 80 Miss Major Griffin-Gracy, 78 Norah Horwitz, 38 Onyx Cornish, 18 Parker Savarese, 15 Phoenix Cassetta Quanesha “Cocoa” Shantel, 26 Raven Syed Ra’lasia Wright, 25 Rick Alastor Newman, 29 Rosa Machuca, 24 Roy Mora, 15 Sam Nordquist, 24 Shy'Parius Dupree, 32 Sonny Hopkins, 39 Sydney “Syd” Leigh Phillips, 22 Tahiry Broom, 29 Tessa June, 21 Tiara Love “Tori” Jackson, 37 Zara Weinberg, 36 And we know that, sadly, a number of names are likely missing from this list. But even as their names and stories haven’t been documented, they will never be forgotten. We mourn these loses, and recommit ourselves, today and every day, to keep fighting for a world where no one’s life is taken simply for being who they are. Say their names. Hold their memory. Demand change. #TransDayofRemembrance #TDOR #TransLivesMatter

“Transgender people are not boogeymen; we’re just people. We live in every single state and community in the country – in big cities and small towns. We have families of our own that we are trying to take care of, especially in our current and often chaotic times. We are flesh and blood people who get up in the morning and go to work just like you. We’re your friends, your families, and your neighbors.” In honor of Transgender Awareness Week, The Trevor Project’s new Senior Vice President of Public Engagement Campaigns, Rodrigo Heng-Lehtinen, wrote an article for @Newsweek that shares his own story of coming out as trans, and urges people across the U.S. to get familiar with transgender people, not just the transgender politics they read about in the news. Read Rodrigo’s powerful piece, and join us in sharing and uplifting stories from trans people this week and every week. 🏳️⚧️ https://lnkd.in/eN8XiGGG #TransAwarenessWeek

Good news: Marriage is still the law of the land 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️ The Supreme Court refused to hear a case that sought to challenge the freedom to marry for LGBTQ+ folks in the U.S., reaffirming that marriage equality is our right. This is a win that we deserve to celebrate today. And, at the same time, we must stay focused on protecting and supporting one another through the continued threats against our community at federal, state, and local levels. 90% of LGBTQ+ youth said recent politics negatively impacted their mental health. As queer and transgender young people continue to face real, everyday challenges, The Trevor Project remains committed to supporting them 24/7. Our work to create a brighter future for LGBTQ+ youth is a marathon, not a sprint. Let’s celebrate today’s victory, and vow to keep showing up, speaking out, and fighting for the world we deserve. #SupremeCourt
