An open letter to the U.S. Congress

Do not defund lifesaving services for our youth

12 so far! Help us get to 25 signers!

The Trump Administration recently proposed removing all funding for the Suicide Hotline’s LGBTQ+ youth specialized services. Suicide is the second leading cause of death for young teens, and LGBTQ youth are 4x as likely as their peers to commit suicide. We desperately need to keep these services funded. I implore and encourage you to fight against these budget cuts. We need to help our most marginalized communities, as well as our children, in these times.
