Transgender Day of Visibility is a time to acknowledge the courage and resilience of the transgender, non-binary, and two-spirit community globally. Advocates like Jake Farr emphasize the importance of raising awareness about the discrimination faced by many in these communities. In the United States, the Department of State recognizes this day as a celebration of diverse identities. The Government of Canada, through Minister Marci Ien, highlights the significance of International Transgender Day of Visibility, stressing the need to support and empower all individuals.

The annual Transgender Day of Visibility, observed on March 31, showcases unity and solidarity among supporters of the trans community. Personal stories, like the journey of one individual undergoing Gender Affirming Hormone Treatment, bring to light the challenges and triumphs of embracing one's authentic self. The founder of Trans Day of Visibility, Rachel Crandall-Crocker, reflects on the event's 15th anniversary and the impact of its inception in 2009. The initiative aims to provide visibility and recognition to the diverse experiences within the trans and gender-diverse community.

Seattle Reign FC and TransFamilies collaborate to celebrate the importance of Trans Day of Visibility, illuminating the experiences and voices of the trans and gender-diverse community. In Winnipeg, advocates rally to support the future of gender diverse youth, emphasizing the need for inclusivity and understanding. These events underscore the ongoing efforts to promote acceptance and equality for all.

In 2009, Rachel Crandall-Crocker founded the Trans Day of Visibility to spotlight transgender, non-binary, and gender non-confirming individuals. The celebration continues to grow globally, fostering empowerment and recognition for diverse identities. As awareness increases, the community strives to define their own destiny, advocating for a world that embraces and celebrates individuality.
