Partners for Dignity & Rights, formerly the National Economic and Social Rights Initiative, is a nonprofit based in New York City that works with communities to advance economic and social rights, including health, housing, education, and dignified work. The organization grounds its advocacy in the view that meeting fundamental human needs creates rights obligations for government and the private sector, and it seeks public policies that ensure universal and equitable fulfillment of these rights in the United States. Founded in 2004, it aims to embed economic and social rights into U.S. law, policy, and political culture, with leadership that centers those directly affected.

Based in New York City, it positions itself as a movement-building organization that supports communities and allied groups to translate rights into concrete action. Recent developments include the organization marking its 20th anniversary with a gala in May 2025 and launching a webinar series on corporate accountability in uncertain times.
