As we come to the end of Transgender Awareness Week and prepare for Transgender Day of Remembrance tomorrow, we wanted to take a moment to share some reminders.

Trans Awareness Week serves as a time of visibility, education, and celebration. It is also important to recognize the need to advocate and speak up regarding issues of prejudice, discrimination, and violence that the trans community faces on a daily basis.

On Trans Day of Remembrance, we honor every trans life that has been lost, silenced, or forgotten due to violence driven by transphobia and discrimination.

We hope that this week will serve as an inspiration to increase your advocacy efforts and support for the trans community. Here are some simple steps that you can take to become a stronger ally:

🩵Learn about the experiences of trans people by taking the steps to educate yourself.
🩷Listen to trans voices. Listen with an open mind when people share about their lives and experiences.
🤍Talk to friends and family about the importance of standing up for trans rights.
