Transgender Awareness Week is observed annually from November 13 -19 to raise visibility for transgender, Two-Spirit, non-binary, and gender diverse peoples, and to address issues members in the community face. This leads up to the Transgender Day of Remembrance on November 20, a day to honour the memory of those who lost their lives as a result of transphobic violence.
Here is a selection of resources that highlight trans stories, history, and voices. For more resources, search Seneca Libraries. For Transgender Awareness Week events at Seneca Polytechnic, please see MySeneca.

Seneca’s campuses are located on the Land stewarded by Anishinaabe, Haudenosaunee, and Wendat Nations. We acknowledge Treaty 13 (Toronto Purchase) signed with the Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation, and the Williams Treaty, signed with multiple Mississauga and Chippewa First Nations. We are all interconnected as treaty people with shared obligation to learn, respect, honour, and sustain. - First Peoples @ Seneca
