Today, March 31, we recognize International Transgender Day of Visibility (TDOV). 🏳️⚧️✨
Founded in 2009 by Rachel Crandall, TDOV is a day to celebrate the resilience and achievements of transgender and non-binary people worldwide. At VAST, this day holds deep significance as many of the refugees we support have faced persecution due to their gender identity.
Visibility is more than just being seen—it’s about challenging harmful systems and creating spaces where everyone can live with dignity and belonging. We remain committed to providing safe, affirming care and uplifting the voices of the trans community.
