    Our mission and how we work

    We partner with people to help them understand and assert their workplace rights, and we advocate for employment laws and systems that empower low-paid workers and marginalized communities.

Free Clinics and Helplines

Our legal clinics and helplines provide free direct, and individualized help for people across California.

Free Legal Info

We offer know-your-rights trainings and 180+ fact sheets, do-it-yourself guides, sample letters, instructional videos, and other resources online and in person.

Litigation

We bring class and individual actions, limited representations, and impact litigation. This work enforces and strengthens the civil and employment rights of low-wage workers in California and across the country.

Policy Advocacy

We draft and promote laws, regulations, and policies to strengthen civil and workplace rights at the local, state, and federal level.
