New Endeavor for Trevor Project

An organization that provides young Americans with suicide prevention and crisis intervention services is adopting a new identity.

The organization is known as the Trevor Project, after “Trevor,” an Academy Award-winning short film about a teenager who tries to commit suicide.

The creators of “Trevor,” released in 1994, founded the Trevor Project four years later. The organization, based in West Hollywood, Calif., defines its mission as helping teenagers and young adults, ages 13 to 24, who are lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and questioning.

The organization is getting a new look as part of a revamped naming architecture, as comprehensive brand-identity systems are called. The new elements include redesigns of the logo and the five-pointed star that is the Trevor Project symbol.
