Trans people are equally deserving of dignity, respect, affirmation, opportunity, civil rights, human rights, voting rights, job security, safety and joy as the rest of us…

Fund mutual aid that benefits local Trans folx. Check on your Trans friends and neighbors regularly. Listen to them and ask them what they need. Your silence and inaction are complicity…

publicly, privately, and especially when it's not easy for us to do so. Speak up in board rooms, conference rooms and your own homes and dinner tables. March, rally and riot. Relentlessly contact your elected officials. Support Trans-led programs and events in the community…
