\n MARCH 24 – FAIRFAX CITY 2026 TRANSGENDER DAY OF VISIBILITY PROCLAMATION <\/large>
\n\u201cThis piece of paper may not seem like much to many,\u201d said Rev. Chattin, gesturing to the proclamation, \u201cbut to those who need it and to those who believe it, it is nothing less than tangible hope\u2026 hope for the future, for every single one of us, and that matters a great deal to all of us.
\nLiberty and justice for all.\u201d<\/em>
\n
\nDuring these times Visibility is a revolutionary act
\nof both Courage and Resistance.<\/strong>
