Fall Family Hike

November - Family Hike @ Blue Hills Reservation

Our annual hike is all about fresh air, good vibes, and great company. We gather LGBTQ+ folks, families, and allies at Blue Hills Reservation for a community-powered (moderate skill level) climb full of connection, conversation, and a summit celebration that reminds us how far we’ve come together.

Registration TBA - sign up for announcements above

Trans Day of Remembrance (TDOR) is observed annually on November 20th to honor and remember transgender and gender-diverse individuals who have lost their lives to violence. Founded in remembrance of Rita Hester, a black trans woman from Boston whose murder remains unsolved, TDOR serves as a day of reflection and a call to action to protect trans+ people and communities.
