The 'Coming Out' Project

 

'Coming Out' Casting Call

Casting LGBT for the 'Coming Out Project,' a Teen LGBT Suicide Prevention Documentary Film that will inspire, educate, and comfort youth that have had a hard time coming out, lost family or friends (by coming out to them), don’t know how to come out, or who feel ostracized for being gay. Suicide is the leading cause of death among 15-24 year olds and 40% of those who attempt suicide every year are LGBT youth.
