Today we remember the people that were lost b/c transphobia turned to violence. These people should still be with us. In honor of who they were, we will continue to help build & unite a community that trans people can not only feel safe in, but thrive. nbcnews.com/feature/nbc-out/…

What an important focus!! Thanks, @TheSeroProject for encouraging this. As a #PLHIV Network, this is a very special focus that often times feels like something of the past.

At yesterday's press conference on Seattle's evictions, a report by the @Seawomenscomm found that 52% of tenants who were evicted owed less than 1 month's rent, and disproportionately impacted #POC's. Come on WA we need to do better! @Crosscut ow.ly/Ak8U30lV7nT

Last night YWCA Canberra launched a documentary looking at single older women who are in insecure housing tenure or homeless. These women and their predicament is often hidden from view. See at ywca-canberra.org.au/advocac…
