3 Tips for Celebrating Trans Day of Visibility
Did you know that this week is Trans Week of Visibility & Action?
The week leading up to Transgender Day of Visibility (TDOV) on March 31 is known as Trans Week of Visibility & Action. This is a time dedicated to celebrating the accomplishments and victories of transgender and gender expansive (TGX+) people while raising awareness of the work that is still needed to address issues of TGX+ equity and access.
As we prepare for TDOV, here are three quick ways that you can honor this week of action and visibility:
Learn about the contributions of transgender and gender expansive individuals to the modern world. For example, Lynn Conway, a famed pioneer of microelectronics chip design which enabled the modern-day personal computer.
Acknowledge Trans Day of Visibility in your organization through your internal and external communications.
Support trans-led organizations, like The Queer Trans Project (QTP), who are doing critical work to empower queer and trans individuals worldwide.
Want to continue celebrating trans and nonbinary awareness days throughout the year? Check out our 2024 TGX+ Awareness Days calendar to honor TGX+ folks within your organization all year long.
If you’re looking for more ways to engage and support your TGX+ employees and colleagues, make sure to sign up for our monthly virtual TGX+ Inclusion Roundtable for DEI, HR, and ERG leaders to dive deep into the latest issues affecting the TGX+ community.
