Trans Day of Visibility

On March 31st, we celebrate the Trans Day of Visibility. Please take time this month to read up on Trans people and the barriers they routinely face. The Human Rights Council has an article on the trans community and the barriers they face.Read Here.

And here are a few ways to be a Trans Ally:

  • Use the names and pronouns that they ask you to use.

  • Ask your employer to make sure some bathrooms are all gender.

  • Avoid using gendered language and use phrases and terms that are inclusive – instead of “Hello ladies and gentlemen” say “Hello everyone” for example.

  • Help a trans person.

  • Hire a trans person.

If you are the parent of a trans child and need support or information we can help. Call or text us at416-406-6378.
