Trans visibility matters. 🏳️⚧️
Today, on #TransDayOfVisibility, we celebrate the strength, resilience, and contributions of trans individuals around the world. Visibility isn’t just about being seen—it’s about being heard, valued, and included in every space.
Let’s commit to more than just awareness. Support trans voices, advocate for equal rights, and create spaces where everyone can thrive.
Tag a trans leader, activist, or friend who inspires you! 💙💗🤍 #TDOV#TransRights#TransJoy#LGBTQ+ #VisibilityMatters
Mist LGBTQ Foundation operates with a dedicated team of 11 individuals, including members from marginalized communities. Our work extends beyond advocacy—we actively run an HIV & PrEP project, delivering free testing kits at our own cost.
We also provide free mental health sessions for those in need and support communities with rations and essential utilities during crises. As global DEI support declines, sustaining these efforts becomes more challenging. Your support helps us continue this work. #LGBTQIndia

The transgender clinics in Chennai and Madurai are likely to defend their [unethical, unscientific] practices, citing logistical and infrastructural limitations.
