It was such an honor for Tracee returning to City Hall on Trans Day of Visibility June 16, 2021 to formally receive the Phoenix Award from then Atlanta Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms, along with Rabbi Joshua Lesser.
Trace never expected for her service and commitment to obtaining equity, human and civil rights protections for all Trans, Gender Non-Conforming and Non-Binary people would also contribute to her receiving the Phoenix Award, which is the highest honor an individual or group can receive from the Mayor of Atlanta.
Furthermore, the award also recognizes outstanding achievements and service to the city, state, nation or world.
