Jussie Smollett has collaborated with The Trevor Project to launch its How to Save a Life campaign, in partnership with AT&T, encouraging people to volunteer as crisis counsellors for the LGBTQ+ youth charity's text and web chat support services.

The Empire star commented 'Just one supportive person can decrease an LGBTQ+ youth’s risk of suicide by 30%, and The Trevor Project is giving everyone the amazing opportunity to be that person. I can’t encourage you enough to apply - volunteering your time can literally save lives'.
