LGBT National Youth Talkline

We provide a confidential safe space where youth can speak about sexual orientation or gender identity/expression issues. This includes coming out issues, relationship concerns, bullying, school issues, HIV/AIDS anxiety, safer sex information, suicide, and much more. Sometimes you just need to be heard. Weíre here. You deserve respect, support, affirmation and acceptance. We don't give advice, and we never tell you what you should do. Ultimately, those choices are yours to make, but we are here to help you on your journey. We care deeply about confidentiality. We understand that what is discussed with us is private, which is why we make the promise that your conversations are not shared with any outside party. Calls and chats are not recorded. Our highly trained & dedicated LGBTQIA+ volunteers are here to provide free & confidential services. Everyone who offers support at the LGBT National Help Center identifies as part of the LGBTQIA+ community. We offer support, information, and local resources throughout the United States and beyond. The people who turn to us for help often live in rural and conservative parts of the country and are frequently feeling severely isolated, closeted and despairing, with literally no one else safe to talk to. It's been our mission from the beginning of offer these important things for those in need: All LGBTQIA+ peer-support; A safe space; Respect to those who seek our help; Acceptance and affirmation; Supportive listening, not advice; Answers to factual questions; Resources locally, nationally, and internationally. We are here to serve and uplift the community and to provide the support & respect our community deserves. We do this every day we are open through our hotlines, online chat programs, email services, and publicly accessible online database of resources. Our services are always free and confidential.
