  • Moving Forward
    Moving Forward FY2012 ANNUAL REPORT The Trevor Project is the leading national organization providing crisis intervention and suicide prevention services to lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and questioning young people under 24. Every day, The Trevor Project saves young lives through its free and confidential lifeline and instant messaging services, in-school workshops, educational materials, online resources and advocacy. TABLE OF CONTENTS 3 Executive and Board Message 4 Trevor Timeline: Fiscal Year 2012 5 Spotlights 9 Program Introduction Message 10 Trevor’s Programs 14 Donor Report 18 Trevor Board of Directors and Staff 19 Financial Report EXECUTIVE AND 2/3 | Annual Report FY2012 | MOVING FORWARD BOARD MESSAGE Dea r Friends, Thanks to your unwavering support over this past year, The Trevor Project has moved forward and served more lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and questioning (LGBTQ) youth than ever before while adding valuable staff members, embracing new executive and Board leadership, and extending Trevor’s reach to new cities nationwide. This year has been full of change, growth, and progress. Our call reports, chat logs, and digital services make it very clear that The Trevor Project is still urgently needed. We saw one of the largest membership increases on TrevorSpace since the program’s inception in 2008 and we watched the number of calls to the Trevor Lifeline surpass 35,000 – nearly 4,000 more than last year. We also expanded the first nationally available chat service specifically for LGBTQ youth in need of support. While we sincerely wish that the need for Trevor’s services would diminish, we are truly grateful to be present to fulfill the needs of young LGBTQ people in crisis.

  • The Market of Soft Drinks in Russia and the Russian Far East
    The Market of Soft Drinks in Russia and the Russian Far East Market Structure The market of non-alcoholic beverages is currently one of the most attractive for investors. It is characterized by quick payback periods and high profitability. The market of soft drinks in Russia includes the following main groups of drinks: juices, bottled water, carbonated drinks (soda). The bottled water and carbonated drinks account for approximately 67% of all sales. The fruit and vegetable juices take about 12% of soft drinks market. The other drinks occupy 21% of the market. Recently, the popularity of such drinks like cold tea or kvass (Russian national drink https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kvass) highly increased. Regarding the bottled water it is necessary to clarify that a clear distinction should be made between drinking water and mineral water. In Russia the mineral water is divided into healing, table and universal. According to the Russian Union of Soft Drinks Producers (http://www.softdrinks.ru) the share of natural drinking water in the Russian market of bottled water amounts to about 42%. The share of healing mineral water is 8%, the table mineral water equals 34% and the share of universal sparkling mineral water is 16%. However, those categories are vague and very often one may encounter the word “mineral” on the label of bottled water that does not fit into the definition in the least. Some manufacturers believe the word to create positive associations by consumers, thus being more profitable from a marketing perspective. 1 Consumption and production According to the Federal State Statistics Service of Russia (http://www.gks.ru) in 2016 every Russian consumed 93.7 liters of non-alcoholic beverages.

Litigating Citizenship Cassandra Burke Robertson* Irina D. Manta** By what standard of proof—and by what procedures—can the U.S. government challenge citizenship status? That question has taken on greater urgency in recent years. News reports discuss cases of individuals whose passports were suddenly denied, even after the government had previously recognized their citizenship for years or even decades. The government has also stepped up efforts to reevaluate the naturalization files of other citizens and has asked for funding to litigate more than a thousand denaturalization cases. Likewise, citizens have gotten swept up in immigration enforcement actions, and thousands of citizens have been erroneously detained or removed from the United States. Most scholarly treatment of citizenship rights has focused on the substantive protection of those rights. But the procedures by which citizenship cases are litigated are just as important—and sometimes more important—to ensure that citizenship rights are safe.
