Queer Youth Lost a Hotline. Let’s Not Let Them Lose Hope.
July 17, 2025
Today, the national hotline for LGBTQ+ youth in crisis goes dark.
In a moment of rising anti-Queer hate and laws that target our youth, this is more than a budget cut—it’s abandonment, it’s annihilation.
Give Us The Floor is more needed than ever. It is an online space where Queer and Trans youth connect with peers who understand their experiences, share their struggles, and remind them they are not alone. It’s a refuge built on connection, validation, and a sense of belonging.
And it works. After only 1 month in the program
83% of the participants feel less lonely
78% were helped with their struggles
70% report improved mental health
84% say they couldn’t have gotten this help anywhere else
Give Us The Floor is a vital lifeline—We need your help to keep it growing and we need to grow. Fast.
Here’s how you can help:
Donate now—any amount makes a difference
Encourage your friends and colleagues to donate
Create online fundraisers for us (reach out if you need help)
We refuse to let any youth get left behind.
