Violence against transgender people includes emotional, physical, sexual, or verbal violence targeted towards transgender people.^[1] The term has also been applied to hate speech directed at transgender people^[2] and at depictions of transgender people in the media that reinforce negative stereotypes about them.^[3] Trans and non-binary gender adolescents can experience bashing in the form of bullying and harassment.^[4] When compared to their cisgender peers, trans and non-binary gender youth are at increased risk for victimisation, which has been shown to increase their risk of substance abuse.^[4]

Institutional discrimination against trans people due to transphobia or homophobia is a common occurrence for trans people.^[5]^[6]^[7] Hate crimes against trans people are common, and "in some instances, inaction by police or other government officials leads to the untimely deaths of transgender victims."^[8] Protections against violence for transgender people vary by jurisdiction.
