Together, we’re moving toward gender justice

West Coast LEAF works to deepen justice and substantive equality for women and people who experience gender discrimination. Through our community-engaged legal practice, we collaborate with those most impacted and marginalized by systems of oppression, and stop at nothing less than transformative social change.

Explore root causes, impacts, and bold solutions for lasting economic justice in BC…

A collage features diverse images and people representing economic justice. In the center, three children are seated on the ground, drawing with chalk. Surrounding them are individual portraits and small scenes: Someone holding a baby, someone carrying a box, two people tend to a garden plot, someone in a hijab with crutches. Interspersed among the figures are various objects and signs: A door labeled “processing”, a temporary job contract; Signs that read: status for all, living wage for all, equal pay, raise the rates; a ballot box, gavel, clipboard, briefcase, a bus, a dove, heart, a diploma scroll, a puzzle piece, books and a walking stick.
