"Our goal is to create a society that is free, fair and just. Where equal opportunity and women’s rights are secure. Where nobody has to experience discrimination, all workplaces are family-friendly, and no family is without quality, affordable health care and real economic security. These goals are no less attainable than civil rights and family and medical leave were when the National Partnership began this work.”  Debra L. Ness, President

For 38 years, the National Partnership for Women & Families has been changing the world in ways that make life better for women and families. From outlawing sexual harassment to prohibiting pregnancy discrimination to giving families the opportunity to take the family and medical leave they need more than 100 million times, this organization has fought for every major policy advancement that has helped women and families in the last three decades.

As a vocal and effective advocate on the issues that are most important to women and families, we will press for family-friendly workplace policies and fight discrimination in all its forms. We will represent women and families in the health care debate and protect women’s reproductive rights. And for our future and our children’s future, we will support confirmation of judges who respect our civil rights and civil liberties.

With your help, the National Partnership will continue to change the world we live in and build a nation where pay is fair, workplaces flexible, health care safe and affordable, opportunity equal, and discrimination a thing of the past.
