Transgender Day of Rememberance

Transgender Day of Remembrance is a day to honor those we lost from anti-transgender violence and recognize the advocacy that needs to be done.

In 2023 alone, nationally, we have already lost 25 Transgender and Non-conforming individuals to Transgender hate crimes, and globally, 320. Join EDGE New Jersey in honoring the following individuals who tragically lost their lives from hate.
