Do This: Show Up for the Trans Community

Jun 26, 2025 | Easy A, LGBTQ+ Rights

Showing up for the Trans Community. What to watch for and how you can help.

This year alone, legislators have considered more than 900 bills in 49 states which target the rights of transgender people. These bills try to tell trans kids and adults which bathrooms to use, take away their healthcare, keep them from playing sports, and keep schools from recognizing their existence. And this is in addition to all the federal actions that are doing the same things.

So as Pride Month comes to a close, we will keep leading with heart, not hate. We support the entire LGBTQ+ community and will keep showing up for the trans community as these threats against them increase.

Join us and earn your Easy A this week by downloading our resource, Showing Up For The Trans Community.

This resource gives you tips on how to show your support locally and how to talk about it with family and friends. When extremists go low, we go local, and we can show up for our trans friends and neighbors where they need us most — right at home.
