This year we invite you to join us at our new center for an evening of remembrance and reflection. We wish that we would have been able to host the event on 11/20/19, but instead we are hosting ours a bit late. Please join us as we remember those who have been taken from our community too soon. Light refreshments will be provided.

Transgender Day of Remembrance (TDOR) was started in 1999 by transgender advocate Gwendolyn Ann Smith as a vigil to honor the memory of Rita Hester, a transgender woman who was killed in 1998. The vigil commemorated all the transgender people lost to violence since Rita Hester’s death, and began an important tradition that has become the annual Transgender Day of Remembrance.
