Through litigation, advocacy, and public education, LDF seeks structural changes to expand democracy, eliminate disparities, and achieve racial justice in a society that fulfills the promise of equality for all Americans. LDF also defends the gains and protections won over the past 75 years of civil rights struggle and works to improve the quality and diversity of judicial and executive appointments.

We accelerate innovation across five platforms — vaccines, drugs, diagnostics, devices, and system and service innovations — that harness our entrepreneurial insight, scientific and public health expertise, and passion for health equity.

ePATH: PATH is a family of agencies working together to end homelessness for individuals, families, and communities. We strive to do this by prioritizing housing while providing customized supportive services for people in need. Our agencies each address homelessness in a different way — supportive services, permanent housing development, support for homeless families, and community engagement — all of which ultimately help the people we serve make it home.

Please add progressive, proactive solutions to defend Americans against Trump.
