The Advocates for Justice honors individuals, firms, and organizations who have worked directly with the ACLU of Southern California to advance our priorities in the pursuit of equality and justice.

Join us at the 2024 Advocates for Justice reception on Thursday, July 18, at the Los Angeles Center Studios. Tickets start at $200. All proceeds support our work.

For over 100 years, the ACLU of Southern California has worked to defend and ensure that rights and liberties enshrined in the Constitution and Bill of Rights apply to all people – including women, youth, people of color, lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and non-binary people, immigrants and refugees, members of minority religions, disabled people, people experiencing poverty or houselessness, and people who are incarcerated. 

When trans rights are under attack, what do we do? We speak up. We fight back. 

Pride remains a protest. Register now to march with us on Sunday, June 9, in Hollywood at L.A. Pride. 

Trans people’s rights to education, healthcare, public accommodations, athletics, expression and more are under attack nationwide. Right now, school boards in California are pushing to forcibly out trans and gender non-conforming students and over 500 anti-trans bills are active across the country. 

It’s time to make some noise about trans rights. This Pride, we take to the streets and make it loud that we will never stop fighting for a person’s right to exist as themselves. The first 100 registrants will receive the ACLU SoCal “Fight for Trans Rights” t-shirt. Priced at $30, register now and you’ll get this limited-edition t-shirt for free. 

"We the people" means all of us and trans justice is justice for us all. See you at Pride!
