Emily Morales, Psy.D., LMFT - Diversity Chair • April 23, 2025

Hello SGVPA Folx,

Transgender Day of Visibility is March 31, 2025.

A Message From GLADD

"International TDOV was created in 2010 by trans advocate Rachel Crandall. Crandall, the head of Transgender Michigan, created TDOV in response to the overwhelming majority of media stories about transgender people being focused on violence. She hoped to create a day where people could celebrate the lives of transgender people, while simultaneously acknowledging that due to discrimination, not every trans person can or wants to be visible."
