🏳️‍⚧️ Trans history is full of strength, pride, and possibility 🏳️‍⚧️ And so is trans mental health.

In a world that tries to erase trans people, joy is resistance. Rest is a right. And community is protection.

By caring for your mind, body, and spirit, you’re creating a haven within yourself that you can turn to when days get challenging. Mindfulness exercises, dancing in your room, watering your plants, and gentle movement are a few things that can help.

And you don’t have to do it alone. Invite someone you trust to join you, or look for 2SLGBTQIA+ community centers online or in your area.

Before Stonewall, there was Compton’s.

In 1966, a group of transgender women and drag performers at Compton’s Cafeteria in San Francisco stood together to resist ongoing discrimination and harassment. Their act of defiance became one of the first recorded moments of collective resistance by transgender people in the US.

It also helped spark a broader conversation about rights, dignity, and community — and laid the groundwork for future progress.

Today, the site is located in the world’s first legally recognized Transgender District, a reminder of how local courage can shape history.

During Transgender History Month, we reflect on this legacy — and on the contributions and heroic actions of transgender Californians.

Transgender History Month is here thanks to the leadership of California trans advocates like Aria Sa’id, Honey Mahogany, and Janetta Johnson, and the founding of San Francisco`s Transgender Cultural District. 🏳️‍⚧️

In 2023, their efforts led to the statewide recognition of Transgender History Month every August.

This is a time to honor the legacy, contributions, and resilience of transgender Californians who have shaped our culture, advanced civil rights, and helped build a more inclusive future.

Trans history is California history. And this month, we celebrate it together.

Today (July 24) is International Self-Care Day 🧘🏾 We hear that term a lot, but what does it mean and how can it help you? Self-care — in the realest sense — helps you overcome stress. It isn’t about buying things, it’s about recharging and finding calm.

That might include catching up with a friend you trust, eating nourishing food, listening to music, meditating, or reading poetry. Self-care isn’t selfish — it helps you show up for yourself and the people in your life.

What`s one act of self-care you can do today?
