Recognized by TIME100, Driven by Data: Why Were Listening Closely to LGBTQ+ Youth in 2025
Earlier this year, I had the honor of being named to the TIME100 Health list for my work at The Trevor Project, where I lead research focused on preventing suicide among LGBTQ+ young people. At the TIME100 Impact Dinner, I gave a toast that was both deeply personal and grounded in data sharing what it means to watch my own transgender son thrive when surrounded by affirmation, and what the research shows about how life-saving that support can be. From teachers and parents to crisis counselors and policymakers, we each have a role to play in creating safer, more supportive environments for LGBTQ+ youth.Thats why Im encouraging every LGBTQ+ young person ages 13 to 24 to take part in The Trevor Projects 2025 U.S. National Survey on the Mental Health of LGBTQ+ Young People, which is live now. This survey helps us better understand the challenges young people are facing and informs the programs, resources, and policy advocacy that can truly save lives. If you dont personally qualify, I hope youll share it with someone who does. Every voice matters, and every response helps ensure LGBTQ+ youth are seen, supported, and counted.Ronita Nath, PhD (she/her)Vice President of ResearchTake the 2025 Survey today: trvr.org/NationalSurvey2025The post Recognized by TIME100, Driven by Data: Why Were Listening Closely to LGBTQ+ Youth in 2025 appeared first on The Trevor Project.
