The National Women's Law Center is a Washington, DC-based nonprofit organization dedicated to advancing and protecting women's legal rights. Founded in 1972, it concentrates its work on policy areas that affect women and their families, including economic security, education, employment, and health, with particular emphasis on low-income women. The center pursues these aims through advocacy, research, and litigation to expand protections and opportunities for women. As part of the nonprofit sector focused on gender equity and civil rights, NWLC collaborates with partners and engages in policy and legal action to influence public policy. In May 2026, the organization partnered with Democracy Forward to file a lawsuit on behalf of Minority Veterans of America challenging the VA's abortion ban.
