Trans Week of Visibility
The Trans Week of Visibility occurs annually during the week of March 31st, the International Transgender Day of Visibility. The event was started in 2009 by Michigan-based transgender activist Rachel Crandall as a way to elevate and celebrate the transgender communities and our many differences. At Ship, we celebrate our trans, genderqueer, nonbinary, and agender students this week and every week.
