2017 Transgender Day of Visibility


PURPOSE: Fresno’s Transgender Day of Visibility is an opportunity to show support for the transgender community. This event brings positive attention to the accomplishments of transgender people around the world while fighting transphobia by raising awareness about the transgender community. It is a day of empowering, recognizing, and celebrating transgender experiences and culture.

WHO:  Alliant International University in coordination with Trans-E-Motion. Trans-E-Motion is a community benefit organization that works to improve the lives of transgender people and their allies through education, support, and advocacy in Fresno and the surrounding areas.

WHAT:  Transgender Day of Visibility. Transgender lives will be celebrated through singing, poetry, spoken word, and music.  There will be inspirational speakers, addressing the topic of transgender and gender diversity, inclusion, and the current efforts to fight for transgender equality.  Art will be on display. The event will include a resource fair showcasing transgender friendly organizations, food vendors, and businesses. Attendees will also have the opportunity to participate in raffles for prizes.

WHEN:   Saturday, April 15, 2017 from 12pm to 4pm 

WHERE: Alliant International University at 5130 E. Clinton Way 93727 Fresno, CA.

Activities update from Working America – as of 4/4/2017

Friends,  Below are announcements of activities that folks who have corresponded with me about the Working America in the Central Valley project might find of interest.  To catch you up quickly on the Working America in the Central Valley project, we spent last week doing intensive fundraising in southern California – and will continue along that path.  Also participated in a meeting of various labor and community organizations who will be focusing in some part and in some way on some of the CDs in which we are planning to canvass.  The idea behind that meeting was to make sure we are all in sync with each other.  We are hoping we can bring together the local groups in CD-10 and CD-21 in the next few weeks to form a similar “table” of interested organizations.  Additionally, we will be meeting next week with folks from the national Working America office and with labor here in California to initiate discussions about how we will identify the “turf” and identify the folks we plan on canvassing.  Finally, our separate Naturalization project that involves assisting those eligible throughout the state to apply for citizenship is moving along.  Folks interested in the planning process will be meeting at my office at 6 pm on Thursday April 6.  If you are interested in the planning activities, please RSVP to me so we can leave your name at the Security desk.  Fran & Lora Jo
