Trans Day of Remembrance
This Thursday, November 20, is Transgender Day of Remembrance, a day to honor and remember transgender individuals who have lost their lives due to violence and discrimination. It’s a time to reflect on the importance of kindness, respect, and inclusion for all. Let’s come together to stand in solidarity and work toward making a more supportive and compassionate place for everyone. If you or someone you know needs support, please reach out to our school counselors or LGBTQ+ resources, like the Trevor Project, PFLAG, or Trans families.
