Justice

We collaborate with local partners around the world to confront systematic abuses, often after all else has failed.

The U.S. Advocacy and Litigation program partners with grassroots human rights defenders to reduce the size, scope, and power of mass incarceration in American society. We fight for structural changes in the criminal and immigration systems that will guarantee respect for everyone’s human rights.


Women murdered with systematic impunity for their killers. Protesters surveilled and tortured by police. Journalists jailed for speaking truth to power. With authoritarianism on the rise, we collaborate with local partners around the world to confront widespread abuses, often after all else has failed.

At Robert F. Kennedy Human Rights, we work with frontline advocates to hold governments accountable for human rights violations and to secure structural changes that ensure equality in law and practice. Give today to stand with us, and with the bravest human rights defenders in the world.
