This November, we’re proud to recognize Trans Awareness Week by sharing a new episode of “Learn with Love,” our series that invites LGBTQ+ young people from across the country to share their stories. Episode Two features Trey, a Black and trans young woman who courageously navigates coming out to her conservative mother, Glorya. Their journey toward understanding and acceptance captures the complexities and transformative power of love, even when faced with deeply held beliefs.

Check out this inspiring story demonstrating the strength and hope that can grow from affirming relationships. Trey’s experience shows us the impact of support, compassion, and the possibility of acceptance- even in the most unexpected places.

Be The One For LGBTQ+ Young People

Every LGBTQ+ young person deserves to feel seen, valued, and supported by someone who truly cares. Be The One is a call to action for supportive adults to show up as affirming allies in the lives of LGBTQ+ youth, helping to create safe spaces where they can truly thrive. Whether it's offering a listening ear, advocating for inclusion, or simply being present, you have the power to make a meaningful difference. Explore our resources and stories from the Trevor community for inspiration on how to become a trusted ally for the LGBTQ+ young people in your life.

Trevor is casting for a future episode of our Learn With Love series!

We are seeking LGBTQ+ young people, ages 13-24, to be interviewed alongside a parent or guardian; we’re also open to stories involving siblings. Currently, we are focusing on participants from Iowa, Minnesota, Montana, Nebraska, Nevada, North Dakota, South Dakota, Wyoming, and Hawaii, with travel covered and a stipend for those selected to film in mid-to-late January 2025.
