Transgender Day of Remembrance occurs annually on November 20th. It is a day to memorialize those who have been killed or murdered as the result of transphobia, (hatred or fear of transgender and gender non-conforming/non-binary people).
We also remember those who died as a result of suicide.
This day serves to bring attention to the continued violence and non-acceptance endured by the transgender community which we see at an alarming new rate.
Transgender Day of Remembrance commemoration service is a free Zoom Virtual event on Friday Nov. 20th beginning at 7:00 pm. Register in advance for this event:
