GENDER JUSTICE WORKS TO ADVANCE GENDER EQUITY THROUGH THE LAW TO CREATE A WORLD WHERE EVERYONE CAN THRIVE REGARDLESS OF THEIR GENDER, GENDER EXPRESSION, OR SEXUAL ORIENTATION. WE STRIVE TO CREATE THAT WORLD BY DISMANTLING LEGAL, STRUCTURAL, AND CULTURAL BARRIERS THAT CONTRIBUTE TO GENDER INEQUITY. OUR ORGANIZATION SELECTS CASES IN MINNESOTA AND NORTH DAKOTA BASED ON THEIR POTENTIAL EITHER TO AFFECT BROAD POPULATIONS IN SIMILAR SITUATIONS AS OUR CLIENTS OR TO SET A POWERFUL LEGAL PRECEDENT ON PARTICULAR CIVIL AND HUMAN RIGHTS ISSUES. OUR IMPACT LITIGATION HAS STRENGTHENED PROTECTIONS FOR TRANSGENDER PEOPLE, WOMEN, AND ANYONE WHO EXPERIENCES GENDER DISCRIMINATION AND VIOLENCE.GENDER JUSTICE ALSO WORKS TO ADVOCATE FOR POLICIES THAT PROMOTE GENDER EQUITY AND ENGAGES IN PUBLIC EDUCATION TO HELP PEOPLE NOT ONLY KNOW THEIR RIGHTS, BUT ALSO FEEL EMPOWERED AND SUPPORTED BY CULTURAL SHIFTS TO REALIZE THOSE RIGHTS. OUR ORGANIZATION TAKES AN INTERSECTIONAL AND COALITION BUILDING APPROACH TO ACCOMPLISH THIS WORK. OUR UNRESTRICT MINNESOTA PROGRAM IS AN EXAMPLE OF THIS AND HAS CONNECTED WITH THOUSANDS OF MINNESOTANS TO EDUCATE AND ENGAGE THEM ABOUT THE RESTRICTIONS AROUND ABORTION AND REPRODUCTIVE FREEDOM. WE ALSO CONVENE THE COALITION TO PASS AN EQUAL RIGHTS AMENDMENT TO THE MINNESOTA CONSTITUTION.
