We’ve secured funding to pay our 16 contributors but still need funding to bring the rest of this vision to life: printing the guide, producing the videos, and hosting the carnival. One BIG priority is making sure this guide is #free and accessible to worker–focused and aligned organizations!

Trans SWers have always been at the forefront of the SW advocacy movement.
Black and Brown trans workers built the foundations for the solidarity, culture of mutual aid and transformative politics that sustain the community today.

To us, visibility is not just about being seen. Visibility must include support, safety and respect. SWOPLA has always, and will always center the needs and voices of trans workers, the lifeblood of our community.

The image is a graphic of two queer sweeties smiling sweetly, standing shoulder to shoulder, wearing leather and lingerie, all rendered in vibrant pink. They stand in front of a background with a white center radiating out to powder blue on the margins. Words at the top read “Happy Trans Day Of Visibility”, while words at the bottom read “Trans S3x Workers Are Precious”. The BAWS logo, a high heel inside a circle, is stamped in black on the upper right.
