Access to Justice and Legal Innovation
Justice Catalyst supports broad, sustainable efforts to fill the access to justice gap. We seek out scalable models of pro-worker, pro-consumer, pro-enforcement legal practice and support their expansion and growth.
Accountability for Unjust Systems
Those with the most power most need to be held accountable. Our Police, Prosecutor, Prison, and Profiteer Accountability initiative targets every aspect of the unjust criminal legal system, seeking to hold accountable each of the actors who perpetrate and perpetuate
Building Worker Power
Justice Catalyst supports projects that empower workers to act collectively to protect their rights, improve their security and living conditions, and engage in the fight for a sustainable and livable economy, society, and world.
Climate and Environmental Justice
A livable future requires disempowering the actors with the largest stake in the status quo and creating the space for an equitable and necessary transformation of our energy and economic systems. Justice Catalyst supports efforts to get us there.
Democracy, Civil Rights, and Local Government
A just legal system requires vigorous civil enforcement by federal, state, local, and private actors. To that end, Justice Catalyst supports efforts, whether by federal and state agencies, city attorneys or plaintiffs and civil rights firms, to expand the impact of their enforcement efforts.
Fighting Corporate Power
Justice Catalyst supports efforts to enforce competition and antitrust law, beginning to level the playing field and give workers, consumers, and the planet a fighting chance.
Immigration Justice
Justice Catalyst supports efforts to remedy the system’s injustices, end the system of massive immigration detention, and to bring dignity to all who seek the protection of U.S. law.
Public Health
Justice Catalyst maintains a particular focus on public health crises’ effects on Black and Indigenous communities, and on the effects of gender inequities on our public health systems, from reproductive rights to underpaid care work.
