Please help us correct misinformation!
Our hotline is being incorrectly shared as "Canada's national suicide hotline open toll free for Americans".
We are not a general crisis hotline, we exist exclusively to support the trans community.
Find out more @ translifeline.org
As Trump shuts down the suicide hotline, Canada has broadcasted their national hotline which now has a toll-free American version: 1-877-330-6366
Community note
That number does not represent the Canadian national helpline. It is the Trans Lifeline, specially for transgender individuals seeking assistance.

Together, you and your #MTG family just raised over $100,000 for @TransLifeline, an incredible org that has done so much good in the world.
I am so happy you are here. You have made a difference. You have added to the good in this world.

There is no justice from a system that kills a 16-year-old girl on the same day it offers a rare token of symbolic accountability. Ma’Khia Bryant should be alive today, George Floyd should be alive today. Abolition continues to be the only way towards building a more just world.
