Activist Alert

CWA Local 1180 members working at non-profit organization The Trevor Project provide life-saving support to at-risk LGBTQ+ youth – but now their jobs and the vital services they provide are being cut.

On June 17th, the Trump administration announced that it would be dismantling the 988 crisis hotline – a crisis hotline that receives more then 400,000 contacts a year. These cuts will eliminate more than 220 jobs held by CWA Local 1180 members, as well as others from crisis workers at other organizations, putting thousands of lives at risk.

On Saturday, July 12 we’re rallying to demand an end to President Trump’s devastating cuts to the 988 LGBTQ+ suicide hotline – click here to join us!

  • Where: Trump Tower, 725 5th Ave, Manhattan
  • When: Saturday, July 12 @ 12:30pm

LGBTQ+ lives are not expendable, and our members’ jobs are absolutely essential in counseling, protecting, and saving the lives of young people.

We’re demanding:

❌ No reductions to suicide hotlines
❌ No crisis worker layoffs
