Asian Americans Advancing Justice - Asian Law Caucus
Asians@ has nominated Asian Law Caucus. Founded in 1972, the Asian Law Caucus is the nation’s first legal and civil rights organization serving the low-income Asian Pacific American communities. The ALC focuses on housing rights, immigration and immigrants’ rights, labor and employment issues, student advocacy, civil rights and hate violence, national security, and criminal justice reform.
San Francisco Lesbian Gay Bisexual Transgender Community Center
Pridebox has nominated the SF LGBT Center. The SF LGBT Center is a fantastic resource for the LGBTQ+ community and allies. It offers extensive services, from counseling to job fairs mentorship, meals, daycare, and a long list of workshops. It's an important resource here in SF and sets a strong example nationally for many other local LGBT Centers.
Team Rubicon
Vets@ has nominated Team Rubicon. Team Rubicon is a team of Veterans and kickass civilians who partner with local agencies during disasters. By engaging Veterans in continued service, not only does Team Rubicon provide relief to affected communities, but many Veteran volunteers begin to regain a sense of purpose, community that they may have not found after leaving the military. In the past 6 months alone, they have deployed in support of the Northern California wildfires, the hurricanes in Puerto Rico and Houston, and many other smaller scale disaster relief missions.
