In a vibrant tapestry of history, resilience, and progress, The TransLatin@ Coalition proudly marks its 15th Anniversary. This milestone isn't just a reflection of the past but a celebration of enduring strength, pivotal moments, and a commitment to shaping a future where The TransLatin@ community thrives authentically and fearlessly.
In recent years, The TransLatin@ Coalition has been at the forefront of advocating for policies that uplift and support the transgender, gender diverse, and intersex (TGI) community. Through collaborative efforts and unwavering dedication, the Coalition has played a pivotal role in shaping discussions and policies to improve TGI individuals' lives across the United States.
The recent deaths of Nex Benedict and Reyna Hernandez, a 54-year-old Latina trans woman from Renton, Washington, serve as a painful reminder of the ongoing violence targeting TGI communities.
On this International Women's Day, The TransLatin@ Coalition celebrates the incredible contributions and achievements of transgender women worldwide.
Here are five remarkable trans women who are not only breaking barriers but also thriving in their respective fields:
We mourn the tragic loss of Nex Benedict, a beloved member of our community whose life was cut short by a senseless act of violence in their school bathroom. This devastating incident underscores the urgent need for action to protect and uplift transgender, gender nonbinary, and intersex (TGI) individuals.
As we celebrate the journey of our remarkable organization, it's crucial to reflect on its early beginnings and the profound impact it has had on the lives of transgender, gender nonconforming, and intersex (TGI) Latinx individuals. This year, we are celebrating a year-long campaign showcasing the milestones we have achieved so far; this is the first of three phases.
On February 13, advocates, community leaders, and allies joined forces at the Kenneth Hall of Administration in Los Angeles for the impactful Show Us Love Rally aimed to raise awareness about the disparities faced by transgender individuals and push for tangible action from the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors.
