Maternity / Family Resources:

A Better Balance leverages the power of the law to ensure that no worker has to make the impossible choice between their job and their health or their family. See their Pregnant and Working During COVID-19 and Beyond FAQs.

The Pregnancy Project provides employees and employers with the tools they need to resolve workplace issues. Attorneys handle any aspect of employment law, including workplace discrimination, sexual harassment claims, personnel policies, severance agreements, employment contracts, pregnancy and family leave laws, and more.

RISE Magazine trains parents to write and speak about their experiences in order to support parents and parent advocates and and to guide child welfare professionals in becoming more responsive to the families and communities they serve. RISE's goal is to reduce unnecessary family separations and increase the likelihood that children who are placed in foster care quickly and safely return home.
