If you’re an LGBTQ+ youth looking for social interaction

Connect with other youth on TrevorSpace, The Trevor Project’s safe space social networking site for LGBTQ youth.

Or join Q Chat Space to chat with like-minded peers ages 13 to 19 in live chats designed for you & by you, facilitated by folks who care. Find and give support, have fun, connect around shared interests and get good information. Q Chat is a collaboration of PFLAG, Planned Parenthood and CenterLink.

We also understand that many prefer to research their questions in private. For those folks we offer an extensive knowledgebase with links to service providers and other resources.
