Guest Blog: What is Transgender Day of Remembrance?

Transgender Day of Remembrance (TDoR) is observed annually on November 20 as a way to remember and honor the lives of people who were killed or chose to end their own lives due to ongoing transphobia.

Transgender Day of Remembrance offers a chance for LGBTQ+ people and allies to come together to honor those who have been lost and bring awareness to the continued impact of anti-transgender bias, discrimination, and violence. These activities might include candlelight vigils, church services, story sharing sessions, fundraising events, and more.
