We pursue cases that move the law in a positive direction and establish new precedents.
For nearly 60 years, we’ve worked to create a future in which every person has an equal opportunity to live up to their full potential. The Washington Lawyers’ Committee for Civil Rights uses its legal firepower to fight discrimination.
We partner with community organizations to combat discrimination based on race, disability, income, identity, or immigration status. We have secured civil rights victories over the past nearly six decades—and we won’t stop fighting until we achieve justice for all.
