Previous recipients of the award from the LGBTQ+ suicide prevention non-profit include Dua Lipa, Lil Nas X and Janelle Monáe. The announcement for Megan came on Oct. 10, which also serves as World Mental Health Day.
“I’m honored to receive this year’s Mental Health Champion award from The Trevor Project,” Megan Thee Stallion wrote in a statement. “My goal has always been to use my platform to help break stigmas around mental health and provide resources for those seeking safe spaces to have honest and heartfelt conversations.”
“Mental health impacts all of us, so it’s important to lead with love and empathy. I’m grateful for organizations like The Trevor Project that are committed to spreading awareness and supporting our LGBTQ+ youth in powerful ways,” she added.
The Houston rapper has long been a mental health advocate, launching initiatives such as her Bad B—hes Have Bad Days Too wellness website in 2022, which provided mental health resources, crisis hotlines and therapy contacts for the youth. Megan was also part of the Seize the Awkward campaign in 2023, which focused on breaking the stigma surrounding mental health.
Meg hosted the inaugural Pete & Thomas Foundation Gala in New York City over the summer, which raised over $1.2 million for underserved communities, along with the elderly, youth and women. Her foundation’s initiatives support education, housing and mental health.
On the music front, the Houston Hottie has been relatively quiet in 2025 outside of the release of her “Whenever” single in April. However, she could be launching her next era as Meg teased a Total-sampling track on social media earlier in October that appears to be titled “Kissin You.”
