Dear John
“If you’re reading this, YOU have the power to save lives.”
That is the opening line from our Youth Voices’ “Trans Youth Deserve Better” letter — a rallying cry for Trans Day of Visibility. This year, visibility is crucial as trans youth encounter unprecedented threats to their rights and safety. We need to show up, listen, and advocate for them.
Trans Day of Visibility is about celebrating and uplifting the transgender community. But visibility is not just about being seen; it's about creating a world where trans individuals can thrive without fear of judgment or harm. And that is going to take all of us.
So, help us show the world that Trans Youth Deserve Better. Share our graphic with the hashtag #transyouthdeservebetter, check out our social media toolkit, and shop from our limited run merch line — let’s blanket social media with the message. Join us Sunday at 1pm PT/4pm ET on Twitch for a Trans Day of Visibility celebration stream and conversation with @baegenning.
Below, check out videos, blogs, TikToks, educational resources and more — all celebrating trans and gender non-confirming people. By learning and listening together, we can make a difference.
