Sylvia Rivera Law Project

The Sylvia Rivera Law Project (SRLP) is currently seeking applicants for a Full Time Staff Attorney position and for a paid 10-week Public Education and Organizing Leadership Internship (for the Spring/Summer 2009 term).  They are also always looking for applications for Development Interns and Volunteers.

Mission

The Sylvia Rivera Law Project works to guarantee that all people are free to self-determine their gender identity and expression, regardless of income or race, and without facing harassment, discrimination, or violence. SRLP is a collective organization founded on the understanding that gender self-determination is inextricably intertwined with racial, social and economic justice. Therefore, we seek to increase the political voice and visibility of low-income people of color who are transgender, intersex, or gender non-conforming. SRLP works to improve access to respectful and affirming social, health, and legal services for our communities. We believe that in order to create meaningful political participation and leadership, we must have access to basic means of survival and safety from violence.
