Throughout the entire month of October, a groundbreaking transgender organization is offering free programming for trans youth seeking, as its website describes, "connection, education, and joy."
Stand With Trans – a family support organization run by the parents of trans youth – is currently hosting its 6th annual Trans Empowerment Month, during which trans folks and their families across the country can attend virtual sessions on empowerment, self-expression, family relationships, and the like. There are also sessions showcasing art, storytelling, and performance.
"When the world tries to silence us, we choose to speak louder," declares a participant in the event's promo video. Another adds, "We're not just surviving, we're thriving."
The organization explains that this year's theme, Love Transcends, "reminds us that love can transcend boundaries, challenges, and differences, bringing us together in unity and hope."
During an appearance on CBS News Detroit, Stand With Trans founder Roz Keith explained that "Especially right now, where there is a lot of misinformation, negative rhetoric and propaganda, it's even more important to elevate the community... [and] create more allies."
