LAF works to combat sex discrimination through community and campus outreach programs, a resource library and online advocacy tools, and various research reports. In collaboration with the Public Policy and Government Relations department, LAF seeks amicus curiae opportunities in cases of discrimination that disadvantage women in the workplace. LAF also provides support to workplace sex discrimination cases that have the potential to make a difference for all women. Read the Updated LAF Briefing from December 2008 for more information.
