LGBTQ+ Local, National, and State Resources
Queer Futures
Queer Futures provides a safe affirming space for LGBTQIA2S+ and questioning
folks of all identities. We provide a safe space for their allies and families to
gather, learn, lead, connect with resources, and foster joy and resilience.
Mission Statement: Queer Futures creates spaces and opportunities for people to be open about who they are, advocate for themselves and others, and inspire our community to do the same.
Vision Statement: A future of joy and belonging for community members across the spectrum of gender and sexuality.
The The Trevor Project provides a range of practical resources for LGBTQ+ young people, including free, confidential 24/7 crisis support via phone, text, and online chat, as well as an extensive online Resource Center with guides on coming out, mental health, gender identity, and allyship. It also offers tools for safety planning, self-care, and supporting others, alongside research and advocacy aimed at improving mental health outcomes and creating safer, more inclusive environments for LGBTQ+ youth.

Mission: Trans Lifeline connects trans people to the community support and resources we need to survive and thrive.
Vision: We envision a world where trans people have the connection, economic security, and care everyone needs and deserves – free of prisons and police.
Trans Lifeline
The Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender (LGBT) National Help Center, founded in 1996, is a non-profit, tax-exempt organization that provides vital peer support, community connections, and resource information through helplines and online chatrooms. Our services focus on sexual orientation and/or gender identity and expression. We are the oldest and most comprehensive national organization of its type and scope in the United States, providing critically needed services regardless of age or geographic location.
We help youth and adults with coming-out issues, safer-sex information, school bullying, family concerns, relationship problems, and a lot more. 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 in despair, with literally no one else safe to talk to.
We care deeply about confidentiality. We understand that what is discussed with us is private.
