International Transgender Day of Visibility 2022

Today marks the 13th annual International Transgender Day of Visibility! We see you, and we love you!

Today we celebrate transgender, non-binary and gender-nonconforming people worldwide and within the TUC community and the progress made towards equity for the trans community. Today is also about living TUC's core value of inclusion by renewing our commitment to educate ourselves on transgender issues and raising our voices against transphobia in all its forms and the work still needed to save trans lives!
