Too often, conversations about mental health leave out the systems that cause the harm in the first place.

This BIPOC Mental Health Month, let’s be clear: LGBTQ+ BIPOC young people are not “at risk” because of who they are. They’re at risk because of what they face: racism, queerphobia, erasure, violence, and the compounding trauma of being excluded from care & safety.

At The Trevor Project, we know that mental health support must be intersectional. That means advocating for a world where BIPOC youth don’t have to survive injustice just to live.

If you’re struggling today, you’re not alone. We’re here for you — 24/7/365. Text, chat, or call. 1-866-488-7386, text ‘START’ to 678-678 or visit trvr.org/Help 🧡

A statement from the NASW National Committee on Le***an, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender & Q***r + Issues:

The Supreme Court’s tragic decision to uphold Skrmetti legalizes discrimination against trans, gender diverse, intersex, non-binary, and queer+ youth. This harmful ruling goes against everything our profession is rooted in. Social work ethics demand that we protect dignity, confront injustice, and defend safety, access, and self-determination. NASW supports laws that expand access and equity to gender-affirming care at local, state, and federal levels. We oppose all policies that cause harm, restrict autonomy, undermine social work best practices, or deny young people the care they need to survive and thrive.
