The Office of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion, in collaboration with Title
IX, Gender and Women's Studies, and the Adirondack North Country Gender
Alliance are coming together to provide a day full of opportunities to
learn more about the experience of transgender humans.

Since 2016, anti-transgender rhetoric has increased sharply across the US.
This rhetoric often leads to anti-transgender policies and bills that
limit transgender people's ability to receive basic healthcare, education,
and legal recognition. According to translegislation.com, in 2024 there are
518 bills across 41 states with 37 of those bills being introduced at the
federal level. In a time when existing as a transgender or gender
non-conforming human is met with resistance, we must raise the
voices of transgender and non-binary humans. It is through hearing the
stories of those different from ourselves we can see their humanity and
learn how to support them in this unprecedented time.
