Seneca Polytechnic commemorates Transgender Awareness Week 2024 | MyNews | Seneca Students

November 13 to 19 each year marks Transgender Awareness Week, a time to promote trans visibility, celebrate the lives of trans people while highlighting the challenges the trans communities continue to face.
