Introduction
Hello, my name is Faye Seidler and I'm a Suicide Prevention Advocate. I created the Transgender Night of Hope as a sibling event to Transgender day of Remembrance, with the purpose of creating hope and resiliency after the heaviness of the Remembrance event. This event originally took place at 9:00 PM on November 20th, 2023. If anyone outside of North Dakota or inside North Dakota would like to do an event like this - as such, I hold no ownership for the name, idea, or concept, but would love to see it repeated!
I think while Transgender Night of Remembrance has a place for many, it comes just two weeks after we lose an hour of sunlight, just before winter really sets in, and just a couple days before Thanksgiving. There are so many difficult changes happening that can be even harder given family dynamics. I wanted a warm send off that made sure hope was in focused. That no matter those lost and those honored, we do have hope. And I think it's important to end that night with that.
