Trans Lifeline’s Hotline is a peer support service run by trans people, for trans and questioning callers. Their operators are located all over the U.S. and Canada, and are all trans-identified. If you are in crisis or just need someone to talk to, even if it’s just about whether or not you’re trans, please call them. They will do their best to support you and provide you resources.

The Hotline launched shortly after Trans Day of Remembrance of 2014 in response to the epidemic of suicide in the trans community. They believe that some of the best support that a trans person in crisis can have is a fellow member of their community with shared lived experience.
