Self-described parental rights advocate January Littlejohn questioned the sudden financial growth of non-profit organizations GLSEN and the Trevor Project in a tweet published on June 26.

"How did The Trevor Project go from just under 2 million in 2016 to over 66 million in 2022?" Littlejohn wrote. "Both GLSEN and Trevor Project almost doubled their earnings in 2020 from the previous year. Why is that?"

"Big organizations like TP are under pressure to grow in order to get grants," added "former trans kid" Chloe Cole. "Creating a suicide epidemic using inflammatory rhetoric and disinformation is key to growing out an organization like this. Kids suffer, TP profits."

“'Public interest' groups tend to get more attention and individual/corporate/foundation donations under a hostile administration (2016-2020 = Trump)," added Manhattan Institute fellow Leor Sapir. "The NRA did really well under Obama, for instance."

Littlejohn is affiliated with the organization Do No Harm and has gained attention online for her advocacy against discussions of "LGBTQ" topics in classrooms. In 2021, Littlejohn made headlines for filing a lawsuit against her daughter's school. According to FOX News, Littlejohn alleged that the school had conspired to allow her daughter to undergo a social gender transition without her knowledge or consent.

"This is happening all over the nation," Littlejohn said. "This same protocol is in place in many, many schools across districts everywhere, and even the guides being used to dictate these transgender support plans that cut parents out even have the same language."

The Trevor Project and the Gay, Lesbian, and Straight Education Network (GLSEN) are prominent non-profit organizations that provide educational and emotional support for young people. Both organizations also work to prevent suicide among by providing services such as crisis lines.

"GLSEN believes that every student has the right to a safe, supportive, and LGBTQ-inclusive K-12 education," GLSEN's website reads. "We are a national network of educators, students, and local GLSEN Chapters working to make this right a reality."
