LGBTQ+ Youth Hotline Restored
Federal health officials are reinstating a specialized mental health hotline line for LGBTQ+ youth, which had been removed from the national 988 system last year. The service provides counselors trained to address issues specific to LGBTQ+ individuals and is expected to resume operations by the end of the year. The decision follows advocacy and funding efforts, as concerns about increased mental health crises and harassment faced by LGBTQ+ youth persist.
