Brought to you by Trans Joy Boise
2025 Idaho Trans March
Last year, Boise made history with the first Trans Joy March. It was a joyful moment that showed our city and state that Trans, Nonbinary, and Intersex people are here and not alone.
This year feels different. The attacks on our community have escalated. And while the weight and harm of that is real, so is our commitment to resist, to show up, and to claim space together.
Brought to you by Trans Joy Boise, the 2025 Trans March and Rally stand together to declare: We all belong here.
