What We Do
Mission
Our mission is to support transgender atheletes by raising awareness around the anti-transgender sport bills and educating the world on how it negatively affects these athletes.
Who We Are
Launched in 2021 by a group of interns, Team #traininmyshoes aims to spread awareness around anti-trans bills, starting with the sports laws targeting athletes. Our team believes that it is essential for us to be allies to the transgender community and encourage others to join us!
Why "Train In My Shoes" ?
Preconceived notions, biases, and opinions based on hearsay, are all common occurrences in our society. Many individuals side with the anti-trans sports law simply because they are not aware of what the law entails, are misinformed of its impacts, or just fail to see how it is unfair to the athletes. “Train in my shoes” is a campaign that wants people to step into the shoes of trans athletes and their allies to be able to see the injustice.
