Today, we honor Transgender Day of Visibility—a day to celebrate the strength, resilience, and contributions of the trans community while continuing to advocate for safety, dignity, and equity for all. 💙💖🤍

At YWCA Northern New Jersey, we are proud to offer a FREE Trans+ Support Group through our healingSPACE program. This confidential space is designed for survivors of sexual violence who identify within the trans community to come together, build connection, and support one another on their healing journeys.

Facilitated by a specialized LGBTQ+ gender-affirming clinician, this group centers community, empowerment, and healing. You are seen. You are valued. You belong.

Community education is a powerful tool—and few embody that truth like Dolores Huerta.

Through decades of advocacy, she has shown us that educating communities is not just about sharing knowledge—it’s about building power. By helping people understand their rights, their worth, and their collective voice, she transformed individuals into leaders capable of challenging injustice.

Huerta’s work also reminds us that abuse—whether in the workplace, at home, or within systems—thrives in silence. Education breaks that silence. It empowers survivors, exposes inequities, and creates pathways to justice.

We carry that mission forward by creating spaces where survivors are heard, supported, and empowered to heal.
