Public Rights Project

Public Rights Project is a national non-profit, based in Oakland, that builds state and local governments' capacity to enforce their residents' rights. Their mission is to close the gap between the promise of the company's laws and the lived reality of the company's most vulnerable communities. They work to achieve this mission by training attorney... fellows to catalyze the proactive work of government law offices; providing strategic support in legal strategy, research, partnerships and data analytics to help offices develop high-impact legal cases; and designing and spreading community outreach and organizing approaches that empower community residents and advocates to be active partners in an enforcement agenda rooted in equity.Read More
