A majority of workers at The Trevor Project, a widely-praised nonprofit dedicated to preventing suicide among LGBTQ youth, decided to come together this spring and unionize as Friends of Trevor United. About a month later, they celebrated when management at the nonprofit agreed to voluntarily recognize their union.
For Trevor staff, their union is the best way to support LGBTQ youth. “We all come to this work with so much passion for the mission to end suicide among LGBTQ young people,” says Turzillo. “We want to have the resources and the support to do our jobs well.”
I had seen a “dream job” posting with TTP that was in my wheelhouse. I almost applied for it, but I started researching the org and how it is run and I noped out pretty quick. Did not seem like a healthy organization by any stretch.
