Engagement launches for the TGD2S Safety and Inclusion Action Plan

The City of Vancouver is renewing its transgender, gender diverse and Two-Spirit (TGD2S) action plan with a stronger focus on making sure TGD2S communities feel safe and included. The City’s original plan to support TGD2S individuals was created in 2016. The City has completed many of the “early actions” contained in that plan.

In 2024, after reviewing the original plan, and conducting preliminary engagement with TGD2S community members and organizations, City staff developed a set of goal areas where the City could focus its efforts to improve safety and inclusion for TGD2S individuals.

Tell us what you think of this work and share your thoughts on how the City can make Vancouver safer and more inclusive for transgender, gender diverse and Two-Spirit people!
