Transgender Day of Remembrance (TDOR) is an annual observance on November 20 that honors the memory of the transgender people whose lives were lost in acts of anti-transgender violence.

STAND is a proud recipient of the YVCF Community Grant Cycle for 24-25 as well as grants from Natan Foundation and Out and Proud Yampa Valley Fund.

AG Phil Weiser comments: “By investing in programs like STAND that build trust, encourage reporting, and foster collaboration we can make significant progress in combating these incidents and creating safer communities for everyone.”

STAND, the Steamboat Team to Disrupt Antisemitism and Discrimination, envisions a community that won’t STAND for hate. Recently, community members witnessed a threat to drag performers that resulted in the arrest of an individual allegedly intending to perpetrate a violent crime.

STAND recognized the Students for Social Justice Club at Steamboat Springs High School collaborated with the community to create a podcast highlighting efforts to combat discrimination in the Yampa Valley.

Intermountain Jewish News published this article (March 15, 2024) about Rabbi Kolby Morris-Dahany forming STAND to combat antisemitism and discrimination in Steamboat Springs.
