Daniel Radcliffe Suicide Prevention PSA For The Trevor Project

em>Harry Potter star Daniel Radcliffe is lending his famous face to a suicide prevention public service announcement for The Trevor Project. Founded in 1998, the initiative is the nation’s leading organization devoted to suicide prevention efforts among gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgendered teens.

“I grew up knowing a lot of gay men and it was never something that I even thought twice about — that some men were gay and some weren’t…I think it’s important for somebody from a big, commercial movie series like ‘Harry Potter’ and particularly because I am not gay or bisexual or transgendered. … The fact that I am straight makes not a difference, but it shows that straight people are incredibly interested and care a lot about this as well.”
