Скачать или смотреть Landmark Congressional Forum On Violence Against the Transgender Community

Yesterday, the Congressional LGBT Equality Caucus held the first-ever Congressional Forum on Violence Against the Transgender Community in an effort to raise awareness of the scourge of violence impacting the transgender community – particularly transgender women of color.

This historic forum included testimony from community organizers, advocates, and service providers on the impact and causes of violence. It included two panels: one representing the lived experience of transgender victims and educating on the scope of violence experienced by transgender people and a second panel featuring HRC President Chad Griffin and other voices of organizations dedicated to ending bias-motivated violence against transgender people. Preceding the forum at a press conference this morning, the LGBT Equality Caucus also announced the launch of a new task force focused on transgender equality.
