Hi there, Friend

I’m Genna Williams, and I work with The Trevor Project as the Advocacy & Government Affairs Associate. Through legislation, litigation, and public education, we’re able to be the leading advocate for LGBTQ young people in preventative efforts that address the discrimination, stigma, and other factors that place LGBTQ youth at significantly higher risk of suicide.

On my team, advocacy and activism are always how we show love. My number one priority as a visibly and vocally queer adult of color is making sure that young LGBTQ folx feel validated and loved. Our job is to create a world without the barriers to a happy and healthy life that so many LGBTQ young people face now – one state, one city, one school at a time. Learn more about Trevor’s advocacy work.

None of my work would be possible without supporters like you, Friend — thank you!

One of our biggest priorities right now is working to pass the Equality Act. Our team advocates for laws like this that protect young people from harmful practices, enables them to access affirming healthcare, or equips the institutions within communities to respond to a suicide crisis should it arise. The Equality Act seeks to ensure equality for the LGBTQ population by amending the Civil Rights Act of 1964.

Thank you for your support during Pride and beyond,

Genna Williams
